Torro Rosso had that system a couple years back, Not sure if they still have it, something about a malfunction, Maybe they were Ferrari's guinea pig. Not sure who had the button for that one though.

Axle shaped.

[stonemonkey]

Axle shaped.

As I suspected.

Was wondering how the wheel's locked to the axle?

Ferrari have discovered a way to harness the strong nuclear force over measurable distances, meaning that the wheel nuts are attached to the axles as firmly as the subatomic components of the nucleus of the atom.

Best I can tell, there's a fairly long spindle with threads on it, and some mechanism the wheel slips over that prevents it from slipping off, and there are several pins in a circle on the hub around the spindle that go into holes in the wheel, which would act like lugs on your road car, for locating the wheel but not providing any fastening function. The nut is in some cases captive on the wheel able to spin freely so it can be spun by the gun. They used to have some wire clip they had to insert after installation, which was supposed to keep the nut from spinning off. I think that was some sort of reg required piece.

So the wheel is released by remote from Maranello?

No, Ferrari have hired a team of priests who pray to God, and God releases the nuts from the wheels.

Ah good - I was already worried about those poor souls...
