F1 teams are considering banning the DRS wing for the Monaco Grand Prix due to safety concerns.
The Drag Reduction System, or adjustable rear wing, was introduced at the start of this season to much applause.
The device has without a doubt played a major role in improving overtaking as, when activated, it gives the driver a speed advantage over the car in front.
However, the powers-that-be are considering banning the device in Monaco, as the race takes place through the tight, twisty streets of the Principality.
According to Autosport, several drivers have expressed concerns about using the adjustable rear wing in Monaco.
They feel it could compromise safety as drivers try to use every advantage to gain a better grid slot, which could result in accidents as Monaco, unlike other circuits, does not have a long straight.
The matter is expected to be discussed at the next race in Turkey with the FIA giving serious thought to banning it for the Monte Carlo street race.
