Anti Ackerman on FI?

Is it just the angle of the camera or do F1 cars run with huge anti-ackerman? i.e. the outside wheel turns through a greater angle than the inside wheel.

Quite possibly, means the tyres warm up quicker as they work against each other through the corners.

More to do with the wide angle lens in the on board camera.

Or that

You can be pretty sure they dont run anywhere near ackerman though.
