During the live broadcast of the first free practice session valid for the Austrian Grand Prix, the inaugural event of this 2020 Formula 1 world championship, Matteo Bobbi analyzed the use of the steering wheel by Lewis Hamilton need Valtteri Bottas, underlining how both have exploited the DAS system in the first hour and a half of work this season.

During the first free practices, the standard bearers of Mercedes they carried out several simulations on the system, using the "mobile steering wheel" practically always in turns 2, 3 and 4. An interesting choice probably justified by the technicians' need to collect data on that specific stretch of track.

We'll see if Mercedes chooses to confirm Dual Axis Steering in the session as well it will leave this afternoon at 15.00 pm Italian time (live on Sky Sport F1 HD).
