DRS as we know it will be dead!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We'll see if that sticks, but that's awesome. Sounds like everyone can now use DRS on every single straight...and also a front wing flap opening up.
60 seconds later in the video: Awwe ####...push to pass via ERS. Oh well, hopefully that gives them more flexibility to dial it in, and perhaps adjust within a race weekend more easily than DRS zone length. I've always felt it shouldn't activate based on following distance, but each driver should have a similar amount to ration throughout the race. And I'd be fine with metering it out a bit based on grid and/or championship position, kinda like wind tunnel time.
Another thing I like better about this is that you likely disadvantage yourself by spending more battery to pass, so maybe the other car can be strategic and fight back (perhaps saving battery instead of defending).
