The FIA has today confirmed the area of activation of the DRS for the Grand Prize of Spain to be held this weekend in Montmelo. In the analysis of the Circuit de Catalunya yesterday, not we could discuss it, because although the decision was obvious and already seen it coming, we still lacked the official confirmation from the Organization of the Championship.
To begin, the area of detection will be located just before the last curve, after the "new" chicane. In the area of activation itself, it will begin shortly after the start of the goal line, and will have 830 meters long. Becomes, therefore, the area of activation of the DRS in that far this season.
The Circuit de Catalunya has never been famous as a circuit where overtaking is easy, so this area of activation of the DRS so long expected that you can change this, for the weekend. In the light of apparently this year so far, probably exactly so, and surely the Pirelli also help.
