Trying to find images of steering wheels

I'm trying to bring together images of steering wheels from series other than Formula One. It's proving to be surprisingly difficult. If anyone has any images of steering wheels from the following series it would be greatly welcome:
  • GP2
  • GP3
  • Formula 2
  • Formula 3
  • Formula Renault 2.0
  • Indy

I have tried that. That's not a GP2 steering wheel. It's a Red Bull RB3 wheel.

Sorry SpookTheHamster, you have no idea how many people show up here to use us as their own personal search engine BEFORE trying the internets :)

Google is definitely wrong with that wheel, having just finished a year working at RBR it's somewhat familiar.

I understand that a lot of people don't do their prior searching. I have done, but did not know whether I could trust some of the results I was getting back, as I was getting so many obviously different results coming up when searching for a sort of wheel.

I notice that bing gets very different results in the image department, but far less vast hits.

Good luck... the rfactor idea isn't totally with out merit :)

sticky, you're wrong here. the pic shows grooved bridgestone potenzas. IRL cars have slick Firestone tires. therefore, this is not an IRL steering wheel...

Hi.

I know this is a bit of an off topic here but I am seraching for pictures of the steering wheel of BAR 005 for serious time. The best thing i could find was in scarbsF1s flickr photostream which is great but does not show much of the steering wheel at all.

Can anybody please help?

This is an '01 F3 Dallara wheel I took a few weeks ago. A modern F3 wheel will have a radio button but the championship this car runs in (U.K. Club F3)doesn't allow them for cost reasons. It does have a flat shift paddle on the rear though. (Imagine it has paddles on the wheel then this would be on the left hand side.)

Please excuse the finger.
