At least in a proper race, strategy can mix up things so that we might see overtakes. Sprints on the other hand are just DRS-trains circling round.
Maybe they need to think of an additional DRS zone out of Stavelot (T15) so they can’t save up the battery for only one big deployment per lap.
At this point, FOM should know at which circuits sprints tend to work and which they don’t. Problem is that they use the sprints for commercial purposes at race weekends where FOM income is low, like in Spa.
Isn’t DRS being removed next year? We’ll have to see how overtaking is with the new cars
