Max Verstappen has had problems with his DRS on several occasions this season and the question was whether all would go well in Azerbaijan.

Verstappen and teammate Sergio Perez somehow seem to be driving with a different DRS configuration.

So the rear wing just flaps open, but whether this is entirely Red Bull's intention remains to be seen.
