Bertil Roos is a Swedish former Formula 1 driver who competed briefly in the sport during the mid-1970s. His Formula 1 career was limited to a single race start in 1974 with the Shadow team. Despite this short stint, Roos's involvement reflects the challenges faced by drivers attempting to establish themselves in a highly competitive era of Formula 1.
