For 1976, Surtees chose a controversial sponsorship deal with Durex condoms and signed Australian Alan Jones to drive. A second car was driven by Brett Lunger, with sponsorship from Campari. The team skipped the 1976 Brazilian Grand Prix because the TS19 was not ready. The TS19 was used at the South African Grand Prix but only one car was available for Lunger, who finished 11th. A second TS19 was ready for Jones for the United States Grand Prix West, but the Australian finished ten laps down and was not classified; Lunger failed to qualify for his home race. At the Spanish Grand Prix, Jones finished ninth and Lunger failed to qualify. The Belgian Grand Prix saw the Australian finish fifth and the American retire with an electrical problem. Before the Monaco Grand Prix, Lunger's TS19 had been sold to Henri Pescarolo's Team Norev, and the American was waiting for the team to finish a new TS19 for him. Jones retired because he and Carlos Reutemann's Brabham crashed at the Sainte-Dévote corner. The Swedish Grand Prix saw the Australian finish 13th and the American return with a new TS19 and finish 15th. At the French Grand Prix, Jones retired with suspension failure and Lunger finished 16th. At the British Grand Prix, the Australian finished in fifth, and the American dropped out with a broken gearbox.
