The FIA has confirmed that there will be one DRS zone at the Bahrain International Circuit for this weekend's Bahrain Grand Prix.

While there were two activation zones in Melbourne for the season opener, in Bahrain, as was the case in Malaysia and China, there will be just one zone.

With the Grand Prix reverting to 15-corner configuration last used in 2009 rather than the endurance configuration used in 2010, the sole activation zone is on the main straight, shortly before the start/finish line. The detection zone is shortly before Turn 14.

The stewards this weekend are Emanuele Pirro, who also officiated in China, Garry Connelly - Executive Committee Member of the FIA Institute, Director of the Australian Institute of Motor Sport and FIA World Motor Sport Council member, who was also on duty at Shanghai, and Sylvia Bellot a graduate of the FIA Trainee Steward Programme
