suspension
The wheel is the coupler — double wishbone
The suspension solved at 0 mm of bump, with the whole travel ghosted behind it. The two arms are the cranks and the upright between them is the coupler; the wheel is bolted to that coupler, so camber is the coupler's rotation and nothing else. Camber here is 0.00° and the contact patch has moved 0.0 mm across the road. The cross is the instantaneous centre of the upright, found from the solved velocity field; the roll centre is where the line from it to the contact patch crosses the car's centreline, and it is at 73 mm here.
