TBC Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 It would appear that the P34 had two different methods of supporting the rear wing - a rather complex tube assembly and another which was basically a pair of vertical plates mounted (at least partially) on the transmission. Would any of you F1 aficionado's know why or when this came about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu_davros Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 I can't really offer a lot of info, the complex tubular support with the deep endplates was only really trialed on Scheckter's car in Japan '76. The twin vertical supports were used from the prototype stage until the car was retired. I have seen another design with a single horizontal tube supporting the deep endplate rear wing simliar to the Wolf WR1, but I don't know when this was tried.
