The first AWD single rear engined racing car to start in a major event:
The Gulf Miller 6 cylinder driven by George Bailey in the 1939 Indianapolis 500

This is my opinion and to the best of my knowledge, that is, if I'm not joking

It looks like the first AWD racing car entered in a WC/F1 event was a Gulf-Miller entered in the 1950 Indianapolis 500. The car was run in practice by driver Al Miller but did not qualify.

There was no issue with the car. He drives just like that. I don't believe he could become fast enough in the future.
