Das a good loophole (im so sorry) PART 1 #f1 #mercedes

0:00 You need to ban this immediately. What the heck even is this? It's our steering system. Is it broken? >> We actually designed it to do that. It's supposed to be not completely attached? We'd actually really appreciate if you did that. I'm sure you would. It's designed to change the angle of our wheels. Very slightly. That's very slightly entirely illegal. That's very slightly completely butt hurt. Why Why do you want to change the angle?

0:32 To go faster? How? Well, to go less slowly, actually. What? Let me explain this simply. Have you ever gone skiing? >> What? The first thing you learn with skiing is how to stop. You angle your skis in a V-shape and they slow you down. Well, our wheels are always angled, which means we're slower in the streets. Okay, so why not just have your wheels straight all the time? Then our cars would be slow in the corners. So, everyone angles their wheels for the corners, but only you can un-angle yours to go faster on the straights.

1:13 Yep. >> All right. Okay, I understand it now. >> It does more than that. What do you mean it does more than that? >> When the tires are angled, they're scrubbing along the road, which heats them up. So, when he straightens them, he can cool them down. And his tires last longer, too. It's cuz they're not scrubbing. So, this tiny angle adjustment makes you faster in the corners and in the straights, keeps your tires from overheating, and makes them last longer? Mhm. Yeah. Sounds about right, you know. Okay, so the only thing it doesn't do, then, is make your airflow better.

2:02 Don't don't don't tell me that it >> So, when the wheels are angled >> god. >> they technically take up more space from the front. So, when we straighten them the airflow gets better. You see why I want this banned? Yeah, okay. I get it.
