Which routers are now the DR and BDR?

Refer to the Exhibit.

Five routers (R1, R2, R3, R4, and R5) are attached to a single Ethernet LAN and configured with addresses in the same subnet. R1 is chosen as the designated router (DR) and R2 is chosen as the backup designated router (BDR). You add R6 and configure it as shown in the exhibit.

It’s very strange question because before we adding R6: R2 should be DR and R1 should be BDR. But… in this case we could assume that DR and BDR were configured by another way (ex.: with interface priority). That’s why R6 will not preempt.
