The Tyrrell 011 was a Formula One car designed by Maurice Philippe for the Tyrrell Racing Organisation.
The 011 was powered by a Cosworth DFV engine and initially ran on Avon tyres before the team switched into Goodyear rubber.
For 1982, Tyrrell made a minor modification to the 011 by redesigning the ground effect and removing the front wing.
For 1983, Tyrrell upgraded the 011 into a derivative version of the car, the 011B. The differences were the removal of the ground effect, smaller sidepods, open engine cover and revised front and rear wings.
It made its debut in the hands of American Eddie Cheever at the 1981 German Grand Prix where he qualified 18th and finished the race in the points with 5th place.
The 011 raced in three seasons of Formula One (-) although its only full season was . Drivers for Tyrrell in that time included Cheever, Michele Alboreto, Brian Henton, Slim Borgudd and Danny Sullivan. Tyrrell were able to win 2 races with the 011, both by Alboreto. The first win at the 1982 Caesars Palace Grand Prix was also Alboreto's first and the last 011 victory was the 1983 Detroit Grand Prix. This race was also the last of 155 Grand Prix wins for the Cosworth DFV engine which had made its F1 debut 16 years earlier in .
The 011 was replaced two-thirds of the way through the 1983 season by the Tyrrell 012.
Throughout the three seasons, the 011 was painted in different liveries and gained numerous sponsorships, most notably the green and black in colour sponsored by the Italian fashion brand Benetton of the 1983 cars.
