Canadian Bruno Spengler is among the pack of DTM drivers who want the series to introduce an F1-style DRS overtaking system.
Despite the fact it might take some getting used to, the reigning champion believes the device is fun: "The DRS is definitely a lot of fun for every racing driver," he is quoted saying by TouringCars.net.
"You clearly feel you can shift up earlier and that the top speed on the straights is higher."
Audi's Timo Scheider and Filipe Albuquerque have praised the DRS system too: "The fans want to see overtaking. DRS and option tires will help this," added Scheider.
"The option tire and DRS are definitely a step in the right direction," said Albuquerque.
Unfortunately, as Mike Rockenfeller pointed out, the DRS and option tires have masked true pace at the recent Barcelona collective test. That, actually, might just be a good thing.
We'll all see when the season begins. Until then, teams will work towards a last pre-season venue, held in Hockenheim April 9-12.
