Post here all non technical related topics about Formula One. This includes race results, discussions, testing analysis etc. TV coverage and other personal questions should be in Off topic chat.
Which further makes this a joke. At least 5 years running an “illegal” system and your only excluded from one race!
Somebody needs to protest DRS. I mean, if ever there was a driver aid meant to diminish the skill of the driver, it’s DRS. Sure it’s allowed by the technical regulations, but as a driver aid it’s against the sporting regulations!
Isn´t that exactly the definition of a loophole? Something wich goes against the spirit of the rules but is not specifically banned/allowed in the rulebook
I don’t agree. DRS is not a driver aid. If it were triggered automatically it would be. It’s more akin to Brake Balance adjustment itself, which is used to manage a physical phenomenon, load transfer, but needs driver input to manage the degree of influence it has. It was this degree of influence that Renault were managing. Drivers can choose to start and end the DRS, it’s in their control so it’s not a driver aid. IMO
