Whakaotihia te rerenga e whai ake nei: Ko te tau 1958 he tau whakahirahira i roto i tētahi atu huarahi nui mo te Formula One. I te taha o tetahi waahanga iti o Ferraris me Maseratis, i wikitoria a Stirling Moss i te Argentine Grand Prix e taraiwa ana i tetahi Cooper-a-roto i uru mai e te roopu takitahi a Rob Walker, me te akiaki i te 2-ra Coventry-Climax Straight-4.

Ko te tau 1959 te timatanga o te hurihanga o te miihini waenganui, a ko tenei waa i kite i te whakataetae kaha i waenga i nga mahi Cooper o Ahitereiria Jack Brabham me Moss i te Cooper o te roopu Walker. Ko te whakawhitiwhitinga Citroën Traction Avant i whakarerekehia e Getrag i kitea ko te waewae Achilles o nga Coopers, no reira ka huri a Walker ki tetahi whakawhitiwhitinga i hangaia e te kaipūkaha Maserati o mua a Valerio Colotti. Ko te whakawhitinga motuhake i puta mai he kore pono atu i te waahanga paerewa, a ko Brabham te taitara me Moss tuarua.
