Waxan rabaa in aan sii wado maqaalkan-- 1958 waxa ay aheyd xili muhiima oo kale oo Formula 1 ah. Ka soo horjeedka koox yar oo ka kooban Ferrari iyo Maserati, Stirling Moss ayaa ku guuleystay abaalmarinta Argentine Grand Prix isagoo wata Cooper-ka dhexe ee ay gashay kooxda gaarka loo leeyahay ee Rob Walker, waxaana ku shaqeeya 2-litir Coventry-Climax Straight-4. Tani waxay ahayd guushii ugu horeysay ee baabuur leh mashiinka ka dambeeya darawalka ee Formula One. Waxay sidoo kale ahayd guushii ugu horreysay ee World Championship GP ee loogu talagalay soo-galootiga gaarka loo leeyahay (marka laga reebo Indianapolis 500 halkaas oo dhammaan gelitaanka ay ahaayeen farsamo ahaan soo-galootiga gaarka loo leeyahay iyagoo adeegsanaya shaashadda la iibsaday). Tartanka Grand Prix ee soo socda ee Monaco
waxaa sidoo kale ku guuleystay isla baabuurkii Cooper, markan waxaa waday Maurice Trintignant oo wajahayay iska caabin aad u weyn. Waxaa ku shaqeeya matoorro yaryar, Coopers waxay ahaayeen kuwa ka baxsan sanadka 1958 laakiin sida ugu dhakhsaha badan ee mashiinka cusub ee 2.5-litir Coventry-Climax loo heli karo, gawaarida yar yar ee Ingiriiska ayaa sii waday inay ku adkaadaan Formula One. Xilli ciyaareedkii 1959 wuxuu si hufan u ahaa bilowgii kacaankii mashiinka dhexe, xilli ciyaareedkan wuxuu arkay tartan adag oo u dhexeeya shaqooyinka Cooper ee Australiyaanka Jack Brabham iyo Moss ee kooxda Walker ee Cooper. Qalabka wax laga beddelay ee loo yaqaan 'Citroën Traction Avant transaxle' wuxuu cadeeyay inuu yahay Cagaha Achilles ee Coopers, sidaa darteed Walker wuxuu u beddelay transaxle oo uu soo saaray injineerkii hore ee Maserati Valerio Colotti. Qeybta gaarka ah ee gudbinta waxay noqotay mid aan la isku halleyn karin marka loo eego qaybta caadiga ah, Brabham wuxuu qaatay horyaalka iyadoo Moss uu labaad yahay.
