In 1956, a 22 year old Swiss engineer and amateur racing driver, Michel May became a pioneer in the future of Formula One racing. Michael was still a student at the Zurich Technical University and his cousin, a banker bought the car. He saw the potential of using aerodynamics as a means to effectively convert horsepower into forward motion by producing a negative force towards the ground. He experimented with an inverted wing mounted over the cockpit of his Porsche 550 Spyder (550-0031) which he raced on the European circuit. Michel and his brother Pierre saw the immediate benefits of the downward forces created to increase grip and cornering and with modifications including a lever system to adjust the tilt of the wing, created outstanding results.
