Re: An assessment of DRS zones on each track

my philosophy for DRS is to create new overtaking points, not to make current ones easier. Australia: Seems about right to me too, id leave it as is.

Drivers nowadays don't push the car to the limit because the tires will die within a couple of laps if they do. You can't really tell which cars are faster based on race times alone.

Its Tony George's fault. He ruined open wheel racing int he USA in 1996. Looking at the stands at an Indy Car race tells the whole story. But.... The Canadian GP is one of the most attended races on the F1 Calender, and there was 150,000+ at Austin last year.
