The second restriction is that a racer can only engage when it is within one second of the car in front. If these criteria are met, you are allowed to engage DRS as long as the first two laps of the race have been completed.

In F1 22, users have the option to manually or automatically engage DRS. Go to Settings and select the Assists tab to have the game automatically activate it. Turn on the DRS assist by going to it.
