I don't remember where I first saw it. Try here:
http://jensschumi.bravepages.com/LogiCorner.htm or Alison Hine's
pages. You remove the large plastic discs that Logitech uses and
replace them with something of a smaller diameter. It does work.

That car is a few years old. They haven't used ABS in F1 for a couple of
years.

A FW22 never had ABS, because it is forbidden in Formula 1 since the end of
1993. The FW22 was used in 2000, so no ABS here.

  Well NO ABS that the inspectors could find anyway.
