Interesting the drivers have an override to arm the system.
The arming signal for the DRS from race control would be wireless. Then it's up to the driver to activate it on the steering wheel. The system is armed into the previous corner and the driver then decides when to release a whole heap of rear downforce/grip.

Apparently this was a result of Sutil activating the DRS that little bit too early. Have to give it to him, it's a great save!
