And we won't find out if they've got three DRS zones to use. They should - at the very least - reduce the number of DRS zones and see what happens.
The best time to get rid of DRS was before it was introduced; the second best time is now.

I was thinking the opposite. I think they’re larger and clearer with more details

I was talking more about the main graphic on the left with all the drivers names / logos / tyres. It's not as clear to quickly find your driver etc.

Lol sandbagging trolling to the max.
Was never going to happen.
The option to reduce number of zones, length of zones, etc is always there, even starting from next race if F1 and FIA want to.
Ban it completely, it is a lot harder to reintroduce if we find aero does not work as intended.
With caution, by far the better way to proceed.
Verstappen has another 1 to 1.5 seconds in that car.
He has been into 1:31's,
Lewis matches him and does his fastest time of all pre season and practice on a 1'33.
I think its more than that. The car seemed to behave completely differently, didnt look nearly as twitchy, wasnt moving about as much on the straights, seemed a lot more settled in the corners, and like Brundle said, porpoising was almost eliminated.
He's still working the car hard though, a lot more steering input than you would expect and still a bit lively on corner exit.
Plus you gotta remember this session isnt representative of Qually/Race conditions.
There does still seem to be a bit of a gulf in performance, definitely showing more potential though.
Yeah

Yeah and for some reason it's been completely absent for 45 mins in P3.
I've no idea why they thought its a good idea to round off the corners on the left hand side too. Most people don't have TVs with round corners.

Yeah it looked like it broke and had loads of positions missing. They've still not managed to fix it.
