1977: British F1 Team
After spending the first half of the year desperately attempting to seek out a drive with little success, Kagan would make his Formula One debut at the 1977 British Grand Prix at Silverstone, for the British F1 Team. Kagan and team-mate Stephen South would fail to make the grid due to the team's privateer nature, and lack of understanding of the privateer March 761 cars. The inaugural running of the non-championship Tony Brise Memorial Trophy, a race organised for those who had failed to pre-qualify for the British Grand Prix, would follow main qualifying on Saturday. Starting his first ever Formula One race from second position, but an outstanding drive would see him overtake polesitter John Watson's Shadow on his way to victory.
1977-: Tyrrell
This result attracted the attention of Tyrrell, who were growing disillusioned with Héctor Rebaque. After Rebaque was fired following the race after another underwhelming performance, Kagan signed a contract that same day to race for the team from the Dutch Grand Prix onward. Another impressive drive would see Kagan finish his debut race for Tyrrell in 7th position, higher than Rebaque had finished all season.
1978
Kagan was retained by Tyrrell for 1978.
