Background information

Why six wheels? Tyrrell's chief designer Derek Gardner's idea was brilliant: four small 10-inch front wheels were intended to reduce air resistance as they disappeared in the slipstream of the front wing. At the same time, the doubled number of tires ensured more grip when turning. The P34/2, as modeled here, started in the 1977 season. Although the concept was ultimately abandoned, the P34 remains an unforgettable symbol of the courage to break established rules. that era.
