The reference I am quoting puts them in the order of importance shown in the video.

With an open wheel vehicle (my favorite use case) is the interference drag between the wheel/tire and the body or is it between the axle/suspension/steering linkage and those?[/LIST]
In the context of the video - neither. It refers to where different body parts join eg wheel spats to main body.
