The shorter drs zone seemed to have shown much less overtakes this race. Not sure if I’m liking that or not.
I understand what they were trying to do but it made it too hard to pass. Hopefully they get the balance right next year.
It made Red Bull’s setup choices look decent to keep the McLaren behind and also nerfed tyre deltas quite a bit as evidenced by Russell vs. Hamilton (disqualification aside, HAM couldn’t pass RUS on track).
