But that wouldn't really make a difference. If the passing bacame so easy, the car behind simply wouldn't try a pass on the first straight. He'd wait to make his move on the second straight so he couldn't be repassed.

I agree. And from what we saw in Austalia it's not as though DRS makes a pass all that easy anyway. Button took quite a few tries to make his pass, and he was close enough we would have expected an attempt even without DRS.

By having the DRS zone where it is, it might also make for pass/repass situations on the final corner. In past years often a driver will pass on the straight, only to go too deep into the corner and create the over/under pass situation.
