Formula 1 backtracks on key decision due to drivers' concerns

It appears that Formula 1 tyre manufacturer, Pirelli, is listening to the requests of the drivers, following a barrage of criticism over the plans to further reduce the maximum tyre blanket temperature in 2023. Since 2021, Formula 1 has been slowly preparing for an incoming tyre blanket ban, which the sport has pencilled in to come to fruition in 2024. To build-up to this, the maximum temperature of the blankets was planned to be reduced year-on-year, something that has happened from 2021 to 2022. Last season, front tyre blankets were allowed to go up to 100°C and the rears 80°C. READ: Romain Grosjean claims 2021 title ‘changed’ Max Verstappen This...
