McLaren Racing boss Zak Brown believes Formula 1’s all-new 2022 cars should retain their DRS, at least until the impact of the sport’s new regulations on overtaking has been properly gauged.<\/p>\n

Grand Prix racing will usher in a new era next year following an overhaul of F1’s technical regulations. The sport’s new code and provisions have been designed first and foremost to simplify a car’s aerodynamics in a bid to improve overtaking and ultimately the spectacle on the track.<\/p>\n

Teams are currently in the unknown regarding the presence or not of F1’s Drag Reduction System on next year’s cars, and the sport’s 2022 profile car that was presented last month at Silverstone did not include a rear wing actuator.<\/p>\n

But Brown insists the proof will be in the pudding about whether next season’s designs will effectively boost overtaking. At the outset, the McLaren would prefer for F1 to retain DRS.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

“What I\u2019ve been told, both within my team and from others, is that everyone believes it will work,” said Brown, quoted by Motorsport-Total, referring to the potential for next year’s design to boost overtaking in F1.<\/p>\n

“But we won\u2019t know until we get on the track, so I think it\u2019s a good idea to keep DRS for now.<\/p>\n

“Then we should – like with sprint qualifying – let the cars go and see did it work as planned, does it need adjustments, do they need DRS, do we need it for a shorter or longer period of time?<\/p>\n

“We initially only work with data and drawings and visual aids. But until we are on the track, we don\u2019t know.”<\/p>\n
