Formula 1 is years old 2011 presented the system DRS (Drag Reduction System), which serves to increase the maximum speed of the car by opening the element for hind wing, which reduces drag and allows the race car it activates higher speed and thus make it easier to overtake a competitor in front of you.
But with an increase vacuum on Formula 1 race cars over the years, becoming DRS increasingly important in overtaking maneuvers. However, the new race cars will be based on the changed technical regulations switched to the so-called "Ground effect“, So he hopes to be able to race cars easier to follow without loss of capacity and more overtaking opportunities will be created as a result.
Theoretically this could mean that DRS would no longer be so important and according to colleagues from car engine and sport it will FIA eventually eliminated altogether, but this will take place gradually. “If the goal of designing 2022 race cars is achieved and it will be easier for racers to follow the competitor and overtake him, then the people in charge of Formula 1 want to eliminate this bonus, which sounds like DRS, step by step,He wrote Michael Schmidt, journalist from car engine and sport. "The ideal situation would be that the DRS system is no longer needed at all,”He said Pat symonds, head of the technical department of Formula 1. According to reports, this could be experienced for years 2024, but it will definitely happen in years to come 2026.
A possible problem with is also mentioned diffuser and others sensitive parts in the lower compartments of the race car, as all new race cars will have equal distance from tal. We have already seen with current race cars how much damage they can do curbs, which was proven in the last race in Qatarwhen some racers injured themselves while driving over curbs wings, the bottom of the car in gume. "The main focus is on the vertical air deflectors, which divide the front of the bottom and the diffuser into different channels,”They wrote in car engine and sport. However, according to the words Symonds the teams rejected Formula 1’s desire to place these barriers slightly higher to protect them.
