Do we have an F1 2020 thread yet?  I don't see it if we do.  If so please combine or delete mine as needed.

With the first test well underway has anyone seen the new Mercedes steering system?  Other then turning the wheel left and right to move the wheels, the drivers and pulling and pushing the steering wheel forwards and backwards to change the toe of the tires.  Pull back on the straights for zero toe, push forwards to add toe into corners.  Outstanding.  They've confirmed that they intend to race it, it's not just for testing.  I effing love this E36 M3.  Especially as it's something so easy to understand that you're left wondering why no one thought of it before.  Its not some 2mm change to an aero piece that needs a two page article and an degree in fluid dynamics to understand.

Oh, and there's a new rule that teams can't put up barriers etc to stop people seeing into the garages.  The delicate red purse gang did this instead.  Kinda funny actually.  Now the FIA will have to add 'or human shield/wall' to the wording of the rule.  No wonder the F1 rule book makes the US Tax code look like a fold out pamphlet in comparison.ERNvkzHWoAE-tXE?format=jpg&name=900x900.jpg

Second: Your picture links have wandered into an alley and been mugged of most of their URL...
