No it's not, the DRS will only be available for 1 car, the car behind. If he gets past on straight 1 he can use DRS on straight 2 again to pull out a gap.


Are you actually sure about that? If that were true then that would go against the need for giving drivers a second DRS zone.


I'm sure, it was reported on F1 news sites when they announced the 2 DRS zone option would start at Montreal.

My understanding was the the person who is behind at the DRS detection zone can use it in both zones, irrespective of their position coming out of the final chicane.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

Lewis: "I had some time to reflect on my behaviour and my weekend...I wrote a letter to the FIA to apologise and spoke to the drivers. I think the stewards are doing a great job."

Back from the open house day. I saw Webber, Kovalainen, Chandhok, GLock and d'Ambrosio. I saw RIchard Connell in the HRT garage, but Lotus were firing an engine, so couldn't shout loud enough to attract his attention :(
