The McLaren M21 is an open-wheel race car that the Australian designer Ralph Bellamy designed and developed, and the British constructor and racing team McLaren built, to compete in the European Formula Two Championship in 1972. It was lower, flatter and squarer than its predecessor, though it kept conventional outboard suspension. Jody Scheckter drove it and won a race at Crystal Palace, finishing eighth in the championship with 15 points, but engine failures and handling problems stopped more wins. It used either a 1.6 litre Ford-Cosworth BDA four-cylinder engine tuned to 210 hp or a bored-out 1.9 litre BDF producing 271 hp.
