Bertil Roos (born October 12, 1943) participated in a single Formula One Grand Prix, his home race in 1974, from which he retired with transmission failure.
Having made a name for himself in both European Formula Two and Formula Atlantic, Roos was invited to contest his home Grand Prix with Shadow in 1974. But the alliance was not a happy one – Roos qualified poorly at Anderstorp before retiring with gearbox trouble. He never competed in F1 racing again.
