Let's be serious mate ! Before I'm dying ..

Advice : If you don't want to see it . Just close your eyes and everything is just fine !

Wear was a possibility.

It could also control other aspects like brake bias without toggling a switch.

I'm fully able to see the play in the wheel, but I don't default an answer as to why immediately to some comspiratorial garbage that suits my narrative. Innocent until proven guilty.


If it was DAS then why aren't other team protesting? Right because it isn't DAS as there is no toe angle adjustments occuring, you only like saying that because it supports your anti mercedes narrative.

M-Powers point is that DAS was operative in 2018 without other teams knowing at first.

Also a few things to note, at the start of the video it was the w11 in the silver livery, you can tell it is the w11 because the helmet hamilton was wearing is purple and he has only worn a purple helmet starting in 2020.

When it pans to the w09 in the 2018 hungarian gp lap where the das was supposedly used, the steering wheel deflection wasn't even a fraction as much as the w11's das usage.... It was more distortion due to the rain on the camera lens, and there was toe angle change. You guys are insane.

1) the steering movement was near nonexistent and more likely due to the water moving over the camera. Find me footage without camera obstruction or distortion due to the water.

2) No toe angle movement.

3) Teams scruitinze onboard video from mercedes like no other teams because they're so sucessful, any minor movement would have been caught instantly. Just like how DAS was caught on day 1 of 2020 testing.

IIRC when they had DAS the movement on the steering wheel from BOT and HAM was much more pronounced. Show the video of the tires changing alignment in conjunction with this video. Or show from when they had it last year to now in the same corner etc. Do some real work here and try to prove your accusation.

I'm able to watch this on a larger screen now, and it literally looks like it is a mm or less of movement, and possibly the movement is more exaggerated by shadows and different lighting conditions.

Literally these anti mercedes guys are trying to make something out of nothing. DAS required alot more steering deflection than this, and redbull's flexi wing moved far more than this...

Of course mate .MAX is pulling his steering backwards like crazy in every single race ...
Don't be worried mate ! It's just steering wheel wear at 320 + km/h !

The deflection is around 1mm, literally nothing. And is more likely exacerbated due to the lighting.


You guys love making something out of nothing, I guess you have to do that to gas light mercedes and try to make max look better than he is, since your whole world view revolves around him. It'll also ensure if he does lose your whole conception about him being the best isn't degraded, and that surely no driver could beat him in a fair car... You guys are quite soft.

It can't be a loose steering component then for no reason ,does the Fia have a safety test taking this into account. You must remember vid of Senna's loose steering before his fateful off at Imola.

The latest .Just in . Wolff confident => https://www.gpblog.com/en/news/99566...e-grenade.html

The Wolf confident: "In Saudi Arabia we pull the pin out of the grenade"

Actually I agree completely with HAM's Rocket Grenade !

Wolf is so confident he's even sticking two fingers at us all to say F* you all heheh

1 MM ?
You must be joking ?
That's at least 7/10 MM !

If that was wear ...HAM was 'RIP already man !!!

1mm is hilarious to say the least, on a road car safety examination any play in steering would be an MOT fail.

No likely it wasn't but, it could be a rare possibility of it occuring due to wear and only being caught during the high vibration conditions of a race. For example vibration loosens bolts which is why loctite exists.

For example RB's rear wing flapping around, in their testing their DRS actuator was strong enough to stabilize the wing, yet in a race condition it exposed the design as a short fall. Which is why engineering always has beta testing in field conditions to make sure parts are strong enough and can handle real life use cases.

Either way we will never know the reality of the answer until mercedes confirms it, but wear looks more probably than DAS because it only occured once before mercedes fixed it, and there was not enough play or toe angle change for it to be DAS.

look at the fixed line on the video vs. the blue centering sticker.

The ring where the base of the wheel attaches is not a good reference point due to lighting flucctutations.

Is RB even saying/protesting that it’s DAS. I haven’t seen that. If it is so obvious then I’d think they’d be the first ones to be all over it. Both championships are on the line.

Well so would no turn signals etc etc. What’s the point? An F1 car isn’t road legal you say.

I like how Alonso is bragging/cocky about his podium. It only took a bunch of penalties and other things to go right to get him there.

Wish I was, then I wouldn't only be on here for fun but I'd have more money for mods.

He salty he got spanked by a rookie Hamilton.

Nope not at all. But these guys will bring it up with pretty weak backing.
