The TS14 made its debut at the 1972 Italian Grand Prix. Only one chassis was available for English driver and team owner, John Surtees but he retired with fuel system failure. The TS14 was not used for Canada. For the United States, Team Surtees entered two cars. Surtees was joined by Australian Tim Schenken. The Englishman did not start due to an engine shortage and the Australian retired with suspension failure.
