DRS cant work

Post

Three drivers all within a second of one another.
What does the FIA do about the middle driver?
Open wing or closed wing, hmmm dont work does it.

In fact one driver was heard to say he kept getting within a second of Alonso and deploying his open wing. Unfortunately he also mentioned seeing Alonso using his wing. So how does this work?

I think in such cases the whole Trulli train gets to use the adjustable wing except the one leading the pack (Trulli?).
Rivals, not enemies.

If they all flap them on and off do they all take off?

It's fairly simple, if you are a second behind the car infront you can use your wing, your relation to the leading driver of a pack is irrelevent.

The most intersting look was at the start of the race with Button trying to pass Massa. Massa had enough KERS in reserve to 'push to defend'.
