 Only three 908/02 cars were shipped overseas and entered by other teams, and Schütz was not among the drivers.After his driving partner Gerhard Mitter died two weeks later in practice for the 1969 German Grand Prix, Schütz skipped the ultimate round in Zeltweg and retired, sticking to his decision even when Ferrari looked for experienced drivers for their Ferrari 512S multi-car effort in 1970.In total he won 50 races, three of them counting towards the world championship.
