#2 1981 Williams FW07D

1981 Williams FW07D

Williams and Ferrari experimented with the idea of using a six-wheeled car instead of the traditional four-wheeler by adding an additional set of wheels in the hind of the car. The car had two non-driven front wheels and four driven rear wheels.

Alan Jones tested the FW07D in 1981 at the Donington Park Circuit. However, the design never made it to a race, despite being used as a concept to model the FW08B. It might have been interesting to watch the car in action, but FIA was quick to ban cars lacking or exceeding a total of four wheels in Formula One.
