🗣️ 'I almost spun in the pitlane' Max Verstappen has warned he fears there will be 'a lot of crashes' when F1 bans tyre blankets from 2024 ⬇️
F1 has been toying with the idea of outlawing tyre blankets since the switch to 18 inch wheels was finalised, with that originally set to go ahead in 2021 before the COVID-19 pandemic forced the new car regulations to be delayed until 2022.
Teams are currently permitted to a maximum tyre warmer temperature of 70 degrees Celsius this year, down from 100 last year, with that maximum level dropping to 50 in 2023 before a full ban in 2024. Asked ahead of this weekend’s Mexican Grand Prix what his thoughts are on the incoming tyre blanket ban in 2024, the Red Bull driver expects the rule change to cause chaos on track.“I drove on [tyres that were warmed to] 50 degrees, I think it was, and I almost spun in the pitlane already.
“I think we're going to have a lot of crashes. That I know already compared to what we have at the moment. But yeah, it's tough.
