The ban on using DRS in the Monaco tunnel will remain in place for this years event, the FIA confirmed on Friday.
Drivers and team members called for a ban on using the system through the tight right-hand bend tunnel last year after concerns that it may result in a serious accident.
With lower grip and barriers in close proximity to the racing line, it leaves very little to no run-off in the event a driver loses control of his car through the tunnel which is taken flat-out.
The governing body also confirmed the detection and activation zones would remain the same as 2011. Detection between turns 18 and 19, with activation on the main start/finish straight.
