    He was more unlucky then Chris Amon, as he lost everything at Avus in 1959.

    In all 61 seasons of the Formula 1 championship, only one year has seen every championship race in a season won by a constructors who also built their respective engines.

    What was the year and who were the constuctors?

    Nope.

    I'm looking for 'Constructor' being the team.

    Maserati are an example of a constructor who also built their own engines.

    Tricky! I'm guessing we're looking at the 50s or 60s, because it would have to be a year when neither McLaren, Williams or Lotus won a race.
