Eric StevensThat depends on what you understand by "did not work" I would have thought getting a win, 8 second places, a third place, not too bad for the first outing of a new concept in its first season worked quite well. The real reason it was abandoned was the failure of the tire manufactures to properly develop tires for the 10'' front wheels. Then the 1983 FIA rule change locked F1 cars into four wheels, one on each corner.

The driver has to be able to talk to the pit crew in terms they understand.
nobody said otherwise.
what he doesn't need to know is know which screws to turn and by how much to make it do what he wants.
It's all there on the steering wheel, and the engineers (not mechanics this time) in the pits monitoring the car telemetrics, tell him which parameter to adjust, and how much. < http://www.notasmartman.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/F1-Wheel-Description.jpg
I agree that the driver can make adjustments on the track but there is much more to it than that. See http://www.formula1.com/inside_f1/understanding_the_sport/5285.html
I have been actively following F1 and all its history, technical advances, and rule changes through the ages. I have a pretty good grasp of what can and cannot be done, by driver and in the pits. ...and I agree there is much more to it, but this is a photo group after all, So just to keep things OT here is one of the technical oddities of the 70's, A snapshot of Tyrrell P34 (which is a work of art). < https://db.tt/3xCvHQeO >
A most extraordinary device which, unfortunately, did not work.
There are two subjects in your final sentence. Which one is a work of art? Perhaps we should ask nospam to parse it for us.Without doubt the Tyrrell! ...but if you like the snapshot you might think both qualify. ;-)
