Enough info to make your hair hurt.

Massa's steering wheel:

I found the explanation of the oil button at 4:40 especially enlightening.

Re: Enough info to make your hair hurt.

Not even the spirit of Enzo believes all those dials and buttons are actually hooked up to anything.

We all know the moon landing was a hoax recorded in a a studio in Texas and beamed around the world. This supposed F1 steering device is really a lift from iRacing with a bunch of Radio Shack switches and dials glued on it. (Nice colors!)

This is an F1 fantasy wheel... If you push those buttons and turn those dials while changing the pitch of the mouth noise racing raspberry sounds you're making, you too can change the angle of the front wing, fuel mixture, oil and track bar settings... In your mind!

It's racing's version of internet porn. We're all legends in our own hands and minds... Excuse me but I have to go... Don't want to miss qualifying.

Would you have enough talent to drive an F1 car at it's limit while playing the piano and opening a can of tuna fish?! I didn't think so.

Bernie controls those car settings remotely from his van in the parking lot.

"Driving at the limit...pianos...tuna fish???? DD. How can you even walk in a straight line with a mind like yours?

Not that you're not hilarious.

It's all about the journey. Got to smell the roses, hear the music and taste that tuna fish!
