In a bid to facilitate overtaking at this weekend's Bahrain Grand Prix, the FIA has lengthened the Sakhir circuit's second DRS zone.
The governing body stopped short of adding a third DRS stretch as it did in Melbourne, but drivers will be allowed to activate their Drag Reduction System 170 meters after Turn 14, or 100 meters earlier than last year.
The change will hopefully boost overtaking opportunities for the run down to Turn 1.
As a reminder, drivers need to be within a second of the car they are following at the detection point to activate DRS.
The first designated DRS zone at Bahrain is located between Turns 10 and 11 and has not been altered.
