Dan updates on Project Inertia, gets pumped up about the new Formula 1 season and game, updates on Daniel Abt, and finally lays out his principles for improvement.

Dan covers some sim racing news before diving into all of the considerations a new sim racer should make. Topics covered include: which game to pick, how to upgrade gear, avoiding lap one disasters, and much more. Give him a break, it's only his first day on the job!

Dan spends some time discussing the recent Daniel Abt incident, along with similar incidents, before diving into exploring the divide that exists between sim racing and motorsport. 

For the very first episode of Direct Drive, Dan sits down with professional driver Derek DeBoer to discuss sim racing and all things going fast.
