An F1 Steering Wheel Explained | #drivedigitalsuccess #4
The control centre of an F1 car
While maneuvering the car is still the primary function of an F1 steering wheel, it is far more than that. Rather, the steering wheel houses a variety of functions – making it the control centre of the car. Throughout a race, the driver and race engineer work closely to ensure optimal car settings are deployed at any given time. In this podast, Gary Cannon - Mick Schumacher’s race engineer - explains the frequency, rationale and complexity of setting changes.
