The world of Formula 1 is a delicate art of cutting-edge technology. Every little tweak and change in regulation can make a world of difference to teams, and one such tweak that has been the hot topic of discussion for months was the tyre blanket ban. These are pads that keep those slick tyres toasty warm before a session, giving them that extra grip on the track. But, the FIA has suddenly decided to postpone this much-discussed ban. And when I say “postpone,” I mean they’re holding off until after the 2024 season. Why, you ask? Well, it’s all about energy consumption and the sport’s environmental sustainability targets. They want to make sure they’ve got all their gears in sync before they make such a significant change.
