Historical Information

The Tyrrell P34 was a British racing car, built in 1976 by the Tyrrell Racing Organisation for Formula 1 competition. Its most distinguishing feature was the use of four small 10-inch wheels at the front, designed to improve handling and aerodynamics. The version presented in this model is the configuration used during the 1977 Monaco Grand Prix—one of the most challenging street circuits on the F1 calendar. The Tyrrell P34 was raced from 1976 to 1977, during the early years of modern Formula 1, just before the aerodynamic revolution of the late 1970s and early 1980s.
