    Time to play with the DRS zones i.e. let the guy following you pass you in the 2nd DRS zone and then pass him in the 3rd DRS zone.

    stupid question:

    how does all the equipment get from Bahrain to Jeddah?

    it appears to be a straight line across the Arabian peninsula, about 800 miles.

    are they still using air freight?

    I wonder if Kalitta air flys them? They have a huge fleet of 747s. I knew the family from NHRA

    DHL more likely. They have a logistical schedule with F1 and the teams year after year.

    Earlier on Monday, reports incorrectly claimed Jos had been banned from Red Bull’s hospitality in the paddock for the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix but his upcoming absence was later explained by his participation in the Rallye de Hannut.
