What do you guys think? Do you believe the tyre warmer ban could have a negative impact on racing?
I don't think so. Indycar hasn't used blankets in years and that racing is great. Even the cooler GPs would just require they keep the tires inside longer so they are room/garage temp at a minimum.
Likewise f2, the difference between soft and hard tyres in their feature races is massive so it makes the decision making about what strategy to run, and when to run it, much bigger
The current tyres are a massive problem in f1, I believe, have been since you started seeing the front running teams not needing to play the game with the others
You make a good point.
Hard to say. Perhaps it will lead to overly safe first few laps by the drivers. Worth testing it though.
Initially, probably, but after some time the drivers will adapt. They are in F1 for a reason.
