Kimi Antonelli was just 4 when Jenson Button pressed the DRS *button* for the first time in 2011 Yesterday, he became the last driver ever to use it! He activated it in the final DRS zone of the final lap, hitting 330 km/h (but still couldn’t pass TSU) Goodbye, DRS 🫡

At the end, Hulkenberg basically said: “Traffic? I don’t care” *Proceeds to pass 5 cars in a DRS train in 8 laps* Fatalities recorded: his teammate, one Mercedes, two Williams, and one Red Bull “Traffic does not exist, it can’t hurt you!”

How strong can a tow be? What about 26km/h ON TOP of DRS?!?😳 BEA had the 4th lowest top speed in quali (no tows): ‘just’ 320km/h Instead, he reached 346km/h while overtaking, although compared to quali: -ERS deployment had to be managed more 🪫(‘Overtake mode’ in race?) -Worse track conditions
