FIA race director Charlie Whiting agree that DRS is not used when passing through the tunnel, both during practice and qualifying. He had written a letter to WAG Grand Prix Association (GPDA) informing supports DRS concerns about dangerous rider in the tunnel.

FIA will set a ban DRS between two points on the Monaco track - with a distance of 1.350m and 2.020m - around the tunnel. In fact its use is transferred to another intervene, possibly at the beginning of the track.

Not all riders agree with this decision (DRS prohibition in tunnels). "I will love the people over to sit in the car and tried in the tunnel with the functioning of DRS," said senior driver Rubens Barrichello.

In my opinion, continued Rubens, they wait for something bad to happen. Then, with their easy to say, "Oh, next year it will not happen in Monaco," said Brazilian driver.
