Third DRS zone added to Australia GP

To try and address that this year, a third DRS zone has been introduced to the exit of the fast right-hander (T12), allowing drivers to carry even more speed into the next right-hander that follows after the straight. The two other DRS zones are remaining in exactly the same place, with activation points before Turn 1 and Turn 3.
