    A lot of those are unnecessary, in my opinion.

    I’ve never facepalmed so many times in a short space of time, I seriously hope that these DRS zones are not official. The 2011 Turkish Grand Prix must be the FIA’s favourite ever race.

    AMuS give the impression that these are the official DRS zones for 2013.

    Here’s a quote from the article that basically tells the same:

    Wir zeigen Ihnen jetzt schon exklusiv die DRS-Zonen auf allen 19 Strecken.

    “We now exclusively show you the DRS zones for all 19 circuits.”

    Thanks for the tip, guys – I’ve written this up as an article so I’ll close this thread to avoid duplicates:

    Two DRS zones for every track bar Monaco and Suzuka in 2013
