Formula 1's governing body, the FIA has decided to add a third DRS zone around the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve for this weekend's Canadian GP.
It is the second time this season a track has featured a trio of straights where drivers will be able to open the flap in the rear wing after Australia's Albert Park also saw an extra zone added for 2018.
The two traditional areas remain, on the long straight to the final chicane and down the pit straight to Turn 1, and now the back straight between Turn's 7 and 8 will also offer an opportunity for drivers to overtake.

It's an interesting move as Montreal is often considered one of the better tracks for overtaking thanks to the long straights into slow and medium-speed corners, compare that to Melbourne where big braking zones are sparse.
With Pirelli opting to bring the same Hyper, Ultra and Supersoft compounds as used in Monaco, degradation is also expected to be high which could make for a very entertaining race around one of F1's most unpredictable circuits.
