At the beginning of the 1976 season, Team Lotus struggled with their newly debut “Lotus Type 77”. In order to turn the tide, team manager Colin Chapman bought in veteran American driver Mario Andretti, who was skilled at development, mid-season to help improve the car. Designer Tony Southgate was also called in mid-season to make changes to the suspension system, slowly allowing the Lotus Type 77 to become a more competitive force.
Thanks to the improvements, Andretti was able to take 3rd place at both Rd 12 in Netherlands and Rd 14 in Canada. In the final round taking place in Japan's first ever F1 Grand Prix race (known officially as “F1 World Championship in Japan”), Andretti won the race in the midst of heavy rain and the battle for the championship title between Niki Lauda and James Hunt. This victory marked Andretti's first win in five years and Team Lotus's first victory in two years.
