The 1971 Constructors' & Drivers' World Champion
During the 1968 F1 season, the Tyrrell Racing team raced using the Matra-Ford car. The following year with the extremely fast Jackie Stewart at the helm, Tyrrell raced away with the drivers' championship. However, at the 1970 11th round Canadian Grand Prix, Team Tyrrell's F1 car "001" made its debut which was powered by a DFV engine and showed off its new specially designed chassis.

The 1976 Champion
From 1976, this worksman "Martini" Porsche 935 turbo racing model was based on the 930 turbo and was developed in accordance with the FIA Group 5 rules. One of the FIA Group 5 rules was that competing vehicles must be based on production vehicles therefore getting the name as a Silhouette formula. Mounted in the rear was a flat-6 air-cooled 2875cc turbo charged motor which thumped out a massive 590hp. Furthermore, the suspension underwent extensive remodeling. The "Martini" won on debut the season opening race in March 1976, as well as the second round race. But with BMW winning the 3�A4�A5 rounds and threatening to run away with the series, Porsche fought back winning the final two races at the same time snatching the championship.

F1's First Winged Competitor
The Lotus Type 78 F1 racing car has gone into the history books as the first competition winged racing F1 car. It first appeared at the first race of the 1977 F1 season in Argentina with its wedge-shaped body and inverted aircraft-like wings achieving a greater down force effect that considerably improved handling and performance. Not only did this new design reduced air drag, it adopted the idea that it would raise tire gripping power therefore allowing for harder and faster cornering. That year drivers Mario Andretti and Gunner Nilsson were at the helm of the new F1 Lotus racing car with Andretti winning the U.S. West, Spanish, French, and Italian GP's and Nilsson Gunner winning the Belgian GP. For the first half of the 1978 season, Lotus used their Type 78 which saw the revival of Team Lotus.

About the Tyrrell P34
Arguably the most radical design ever to compete in Formula 1, the Tyrrell P34 caused a sensation when it was revealed to the public. The car's designer, Derek Gardner, wanted to reduce drag by making the frontal area smaller, so instead of two normal-sized tires he used four small diameter tires that could be steered together.

About the Ferrari 312T
Of the 14 F1 Grand Prix races held in 1975, Ferrari drivers Niki Lauda and Clay Regazzoni won 6 between them, claiming the Constructors Championship by a large margin. The car which helped them win these victories was the 312T, an updated version of the 312B, with the T standing for "transverse," as the gearbox was mounted in this way.
