Seems to me that when putting a wheel on before a race, the mechanics would hand thread the nut on to make sure it's threading properly, then tighten it with the gun. If that's nut what they are doing, they are just asking for trouble.
Liberty needs to quit having ignorant celebs wave the flag and do interviews. Plenty of celebs out there that follow F1, why use someone that knows nothing of the sport? Was she selected to check the "female" and "black" boxes in the identity politics nonsense?
