The first detection zone will be placed 10 meters after Turn 15 of the new Buddh circuit, with the activation 36 meters after Turn 16, leaving drivers with a bit part of the shorter straight to try to overtake.

The second DRS zone will be placed 16m before Turn 3 (detection) and 510m after the same corner (activation), which will give drivers more than half of the longer straight to overtake rivals.
