Formula One

1977

Patrese made his competitive Formula One debut at the 1977 Spanish Grand Prix for LEC Refrigeration Racing, where he failed to qualify. His first race start came at the Tuscan Grand Prix, where he finished in 16th place.

After Renault driver Jean-Pierre Jarier replaced the injured Emerson Fittipaldi at the Fittipaldi squad after the Dutch Grand Prix, Patrese replaced Jarier effective for the final seven races of 1977. Patrese made his debut for Renault at the German Grand Prix, where despite out-qualifying team-mate Jean-Pierre Jabouille he did not finish the race, spinning out on Jabouille's dropped oil after an engine failure.
