The video is a step-by-step look inside the car which is customizable to each driver’s own unique preferences when it comes to the steering wheel and sitting position which as Johnson explains is moulded to the shape of his body using a plaster mold similar to what dentists use to make impressions.
For the final part of the video, Johnson discusses the steering wheel and how different it is to what he was used to in NASCAR.
