I'm 100% behind removing the blankets. One of the stated impacts is towards sustainability targets. However, the main contribution to F1 emissions is shipping/logistics. Until they address the calendar and the ridiculous waste associated to the unnecessary jet setting across the world, it's all meaningless.
Also I want to see drivers have to demonstrate the skill of managing tire heat.
Spot on, it's window dressing to such an absurd point
