f1wheel

As Matt will tell you, I know absolutely nothing about cars. Four wheels, a steering wheel, a couple of pedals—that’s the extent of my knowledge. That said, for whatever reason, I find myself getting into Formula One; it’s just fun! So, with that in mind, watch as I watch Force India‘s team manager explain all the high-tech wonderment of a Formula 1 steering wheel.

The gist of it is, unlike on your sweet Toyota Corolla, every pertinent control for driving the car is available on the wheel itself.
