Chassis:
On his way to the World Championship, Mario Andretti used chassis 79/4 or JPS22 for the last races of the 1978 season. He first raced the car in the Dutch Grand Prix at Zandvoort and immediately scored a victory. This chassis continued to serve well into the 1979 season when it was driven by both Andretti and Carlos Reuteman. In its second year, a third for Reuteman at Monaco was the best result. Today chassis 79/4 is owned by an American enthusiast who brought it to the 2008 Monterey Historic Races. Throughout the weekend the car was demonstrated by Mario Andretti, who still looked remarkably quick on the 30th anniversary of his championship winning season.
