Drag Reduction System (DRS) is an innovation introduced in 2011 in an effort to improve the spectacle of Formula One by increasing overtaking. The Drag Reduction System allows drivers to open a gap in the rear wing at certain points during the race weekend, thereby removing much of the drag produced by the rear wing. This allows the car to go faster, with reduced levels of downforce. This stalling effect of the rear wing is activated by the driver, and can be deactivated either manually by the driver or automatically when the brakes are applied.
