is the DRS controlled by race control or is it driver controlled at all times?

I think it should be investigated if true. God help if it was Red Bull who was suspected of this...

no, that means that if red bull is suspected of wrongdoing, there is a witchhunt.Does that mean that you think that if Ferrari is suspected of wrongdoing, everyone just lets it go?

He had it open in the second zone - that was past the yellow flag zone.Yeah I noticed that, but I think he had it open down the second zone (?) and then within seconds the DRS enabled appeared on screen.

i remember that schumacher incurred a penalty when he had his DRS open during a race

Alonso's DRS failed during qualyfying. Don't see any threads bitching about it.

Vettel was penalised for opening his DRS last year in Spain.
Adam Cooper.in Barcelona this year both Sebastian Vettel and Felipe Massa received penalties after they drove through a yellow zone with their DRS open and without backing off.

It wasn't a yellow zone, but the DRS at the time was disabled.He had it open in the second zone - that was past the yellow flag zone.

He didn't use it in the first zone heading the yellow flag zone.
He then did use it for the second zone once passed the yellows, with the enabled message appearing a few seconds later. With all the carry on it seems a reasonable action to me.

I saw that also. Noone around him had DRS opened. I guess it is due to error in ECU. Otherwise they would give him a penalty for sure.

Probably the teams get the DRS ok before it's shown on TV.
