What does DNQ mean in F1? DNQ means 'DidNotQualify'. This means that the Formula 1 driver did not set a time during qualifying or set too slow a time. The terms DNF and DNS are not to be confused with the term DRS. To know what exactly DRS is, check outthis page. ...
What is DRS and how does it work? The DRS uses an actuator controlling a flap in the middle of an F1 car’s rear wing that can be opened when drivers push a steering wheel button after they enter a designated part of each track. These areas are known as DRS ‘Activation’ zones. Th...
However, as the latest generation of F1 cars have been designed to allow drivers to follow more closely with a reduced ‘dirty air’ effect, many people had hoped this would lead to DRS being dropped. While that is an aim of F1’s sporting bosses in the coming years, the device’s con...
In a bid to up the entertainment and boost overtaking - and after a failed initial attempt at allowing drivers to alter their front wing angle during a race - DRS was introduced. So what is DRS in F1? Okay, time to explain exactly what it is and what it does - it should help when ...
And the problem also does not appear to be uniform throughout qualifying and the race. Snaps of oversteer on low fuel are exacerbated by bouncing, but in the race it is rather down to inconsistent grip and downforce. Lewis Hamilton, Mercedes F1 W15 ...

Evolution of the F1 steering wheel An F1 steering wheel has not always looked like it does in the present day. Back in the championship’s early years, it held distinct similarities to the average steering wheel of a road car. This is because when Juan Manuel Fangio, Stirling Mos...
That said, the forecast is for a chance of rain, and even if it’s dry the DRS zone has been extended this year to try and increase the opportunities for overtaking. We’ve also already seen a number of drivers at least dip a wheel into the gravel at...
One other thing I hadn't thought of - does anyone ever swap shafts in/out of a head? The impetus behind this - I got a good deal on a shaft that is a "3 iron length" - I'm wondering if I should get a tip and swap it in one of my clubs or buy a head and build a dri...
so I'm glad we could do some laps on the slicks and the Inters. The car felt strong on both compounds, and the slicks felt really good even with the DRS closed, so there's definitely more lap time there. In all my running today, I was between fourth and ninth so I'm gen...
