Williams brings temporary fix for F1 steering wheel glitch
Sargeant experienced an unexpected brake bias movement which caused him to skid off the track at Sakhir last weekend. Williams team revealed that the issue stemmed from the brake bias changing differently than requested. Team principal James Vowles explained that an uncommanded brake bias movement was the culprit. The problem was traced back to an ‘electronic issue’ related to the team’s new steering wheel design for this year. Sargeant mentioned a short-term fix for the Saudi Arabian GP and a permanent long-term solution coming in Melbourne. Although the new wheel design contributed to the problem, Sargeant supported it, highlighting its benefits for racing situations.
