Forget track limits or planks, this is the most important topic in F1.
While there are plenty of serious discussions to be had about F1, we thought we would discuss something a little less serious – steering wheels.
Williams have previously said this is to make the wheel lighter and therefore require less effort from the driver but it isn’t half ugly. Plenty of dials on this one and pleasingly, plenty of colours. There is not much that makes this wheel distinctly Aston Martin aside from their green colour scheme on the strat dial so it is only worthy of a middle of the road placement.Of al the steering wheels, this is perhaps the one that most resembles an Xbox or PlayStation controller, perhaps due to the button labelled ‘X’ next to the left hand.
It is a wheel that has hardly changed over the years with the middle console having toggles for the tyres, strat, engine, display and mode. Like we will see with Ferrari later on, it is a very similar design with plenty of dials and plenty of buttons all around it. Colour scheme wise, the light green of Mercedes features in the bottom right and it is also a wheel with plenty of hidden buttons and tricks located on it.
