When I was in F1, one of the tyre blankets was removed too early so the car left the garage with one tyre a few degrees cooler. This never got up to temperature throughout the stint π₯Ά
F1 tyres are so sensitive, one degree can significantly affect performance π‘οΈ

How long do @F1 tyres spend in tyre blankets and what temperature are they heated to? ππ‘οΈ
βͺπ‘π΄ SLICKS -> Maximum of 2hrs at 70degC
π’ INTERMEDIATES -> Maximum of 2hrs at 60degC
π΅ WETS -> No preheating allowed
Find out how tyre blankets work β‘οΈ lnkd.in/gdvdA28A

Colder tyres mean slower outlaps and the undercut will be less effective. This could encourage teams to stay out longer and overcut more π
For my IndyCar followers - how has removing tyre blankets affected the pitstop strategy? Does it add more variability to the racing? π€

Engineering is not just a subject, it's a way of thinking and approaching problems. It can lead to building racecars, aircraft, rockets or wind turbines π
We need more engineers!
