DRS doesn't even need to be used. Checo had the same advantage without DRS when overtaking Leclerc at Spa. Sailed by as if he had DRS anyway.
But the advantage goes away on low-speed tracks, and there's a pattern of Max seemingly winding something up to pull out a fast lap so that they can still get pole. He will always have green or yellow first or second sectors, and then an absurdly fast final sector netting overall half a second or more over the rest of the field.
yes, they have an overall low-drag package. super duper DRS is the icing on the cake.
