The GP2 and GP3 races are great, I always record them and watch them later in the week. There have been some frankly epic races so far this year.
 
Got GP2 race and GP3 qualy and race set to record on sky+ tomorrow. :)

Noticed it said gp3 race 1....is there race 2 on Sunday?
 
Bit of info on the Lotus DDRS

According to AUTOSPORT technical correspondent Gary Anderson, the Lotus double DRS system could work through the placement of two intakes at the top of the airbox, flanking the main air intake. This airflow runs into a tube that runs to the back of the engine cover.

When the DRS is not deployed, the air continues through an outlet at the rear of the engine cover. But when the DRS is activated, as with the Mercedes system, a hole is exposed on the inside of the rear wing. This creates a low pressure 'switch' diverting the air into another tube that connects to the underside of the rear wing, through a sealed chamber in the main plane and into the endplate.

This then blows across the rear wing, causing some of the airflow passing over the wing to separate from it, therefore reducing drag when the DRS is open.

While the Mercedes system takes air in from the nose, the Lotus system uses the same basic concept of a hole exposed by the DRS being deploying allowing the air to escape onto the rear wing that has been given the go-ahead by the FIA despite complaints from rival teams earlier this year.

It's a shame they can't spend the enormous amount of money developing it on the engines instead, I don't think road cars are going to have DRS any time soon :D
