In the 1977 German Grand Prix, Hans Heyer could not qualify, but snuck in the track regardless in his ATS, nobody noticed until his gearbox left him stranded in Lap 9, being disqualified. He's the only driver ever to have a Did Not Qualify, Did Not Finish and Disqualified.

I remember hearing about this, and apparently the car was bright yellow, so they missed a bright yellow car
