Red Bull’s DRS numbers revealed: It has given the drivers ‘free performance’Max Verstappen’s charge from ninth to first at the Miami Grand Prix has once again brought Red Bull’s DRS into the headlines with Karun Chandhok revealing it reduces the car’s drag by “25 percent”.Red Bull’s DRS made headlines earlier this season when Lewis Hamilton, overtaken by Max Verstappen in Saudi Arabia and again in Australia, called it “insane” while his team boss Toto Wolff billed it as a “mega”.

Later in the race he would also use DRS to gain a speed advantage over the other Red Bull of Sergio Perez to take the lead and the win, Red Bull’s fifth in five races.“We’ve had DRS now for 12 seasons and they’ve just gone there and thought, ‘right, we need to find something that gives us this incredible advantage so even if we don’t qualify the front row it doesn’t matter’ – as proved this weekend.
