F1 must get rid of the dangerous DRS

Author of the article: , published September 1, 2018.

Carlos Sainz believes Formula One should find a way to make overtaking easier without the use of a movable rear wing, which caused Marcus Ericsson to have a serious accident in his second free practice at speeds close to 330 kilometers per hour. The Sauber racer's wings did not close in the first corner after the DRS system was deactivated, so the car crashed into a guardrail and then overturned several times.

Sainz was relieved to see that a fellow racer was not injured, but said: “This artificial device, the DRS, is dangerous. If the wings are not closed, the race car behaves completely differently. So I’m just wondering if Formula 1 will evolve in a direction where DRS won’t be needed to overtake. Today, we need DRS, because without it, overtaking would be more or less impossible, but I hope that they will find a way that we will no longer need this system. ”
