Trust me it's no better on a pc. Rather than auto correct, it's just eligible instead.

That sentence makes no sense whatsoever
Why?
Whats wrong with it, you're going to have to spell it out.
Well that's one bullet dodged, let's hope for same outcome. I can't see them penalising that incident and not Alonsos one.
I don't fail to acknowledge it, I've acknowledged it several times. It's an over take button pure and simple. It's not racing and never can be. Dirty air is no longer such a problem as you make it out to be and can be improved even more. We have seen time and again this season, cars literally under each others gear boxes, despite 0.5sec average and not in DRS zone. Overtaking shouldn't and doesn't need to be a breeze.

Again that is not racing or overtaking, again you might as well just time trial like they do in other series and not race.
They were banned last season weren't they
Yep, off throttle exhaust is being banned (well reduced) at silverstone.
Yeah, DRS has made overtaking a push button manoeuvre
It has at some races and at the other races it's useless and we still have overtaking.
You just have to look at today for how many overtakes were DRS and a clear pass. More than people realise when you look back in the midfield.
/legible.
opposite of that, is what I was after.
Great news how about all the others?
Kobyashi, heildfeild and a few others.
Trust me, overtaking is NEVER a pushbutton affair, DRS just adds some straightline speed which then has to be scrubbed off at the corner, requiring earlier braking (not breaking) so results in more dicing, 2 cars abreast in a croner etc etc.
.
Re watch the race, it most certainly was a push button, drove clear around and back on racing line before the breaking zone in several cases. Only when coming from further back was it into the braking zone. As with MSC and Webber, as the Mercedes had great traction and pulled a lead before DRS kicked in. Compare that to JB on MSC where the Mclaren traction was comparable and it was a clean drive around.
Man that would be amazing or even Ferrari. However he doesn't have much hope.
Mclarens sealed off and Ferrari/RBR have a clear number 1 driver for years to come. Unless another car like mercedes comes good, I don't have much faith in Diresta getting a good drive, where he can thrive.

Of course it was a deciding factor,in a lot of passes it was pretty much the only factor. You just need to watch the video of the closing speeds once the wing pops open. It's clear as day. Even the commentators were saying it and drivers.
The reason webber made it look hard, wasn't because button was better. But because the merc had much better traction out of the final corner than webber. Visually pulling away, meaning webber took longer to catch. That shows you how easy DRS makes it. You can be falling back and still have a go.
Thing is racing, not pure entertainment and if they solved the issues like they were going to do in 2013, it's not even needed.

they have and are doing it, higher nose, smaller wings, no winglets between axles, double diffuser.
They finally get to a point where there rules are working well and they panic add a knee jerk reaction and then seemingly give up.
You could say that stuff for every f1 race, it was an amazing drive, altime best I don't know. But it certainly was a drive and a half.
Di Resta not happy.
Di Resta aggrieved at 'harsh' drive-through penalty
Paul di Resta has hit-out at the drive-through penalty he incurred during the Canadian Grand Prix, branding the decision "ridiculous".
I wish teams did fight the FIA more.it might force them to have a rethink of rules and make designs far fairly.
Oh an lotus sign big sponsors GE
Team Lotus secures GE backing
Team Lotus has announced a major new sponsorship deal and technology partnership with General Electric.
GE branding will appear on the Lotus cars and infrastructure from next month's Silverstone race onwards, and team boss Tony Fernandes said the partnership would go much deeper than a standard sponsorship.
