Britisn GP, league: Oppositelock. Pro tier. This is not right.

I agree. When I first noticed that DRS is enabled in wet races, I was shocked. Overtime, I've become used to it, but is there anyway for DRS to be disabled when it starts raning or when there is accumilation on the track, like it is in Formula 1?

Possible simple fix. Once standing water reaches X amount, DRS is not permitted.

Even in F1 that DRS rule in the wet is open for interpretation of the race director and feedback from the drivers on the track.

Drag Reduction System Article 27.5b of the 2015 FIA Sporting Regulations

What the sporting regulations say:
◾Use of the Drag Reduction System (DRS) overtaking aid (which alters the angle of the rear wing flap to reduce drag) is strictly controlled.
◾ At all times, the race director can suspend the system in poor weather conditions, or if there are yellow flags in the DRS activation zone.
◾Drivers are free to activate the DRS as they wish within the designated DRS zones during practice and qualifying. However if the DRS is disabled at any point during Q1, Q2 or Q3, it will remain disabled for the remainder of the relevant period.
◾During the race meanwhile drivers will not be able to access the DRS for the first two laps following the race start or a safety car restart.
◾After that period, they may only activate the DRS when they are within one second of the car in front (Wet or Dry indicated via a dashboard lighting system) at the DRS detection point.
◾The DRS will automatically be disabled (resetting the rear wing flap to its original position) the first time the driver uses the brakes after activation.


UPDATE: Jack is our race director & all the drivers in iGP have read, signed & agreed to the iGP Sporting Regulations, DRS can be used when the light turns green, even in the rain & on lap 2 in Spain :P

Rules are made to be broken :D
