@Fingerthief@goldenjoe6 I am seeing everyone say no tyre blankets would make racing more competitive, but I don’t think I understand why. Can you explain?
Regardless of if they remove or keep the blankets, it will be the same for everyone, why would it make things more competitive? just because it is tougher to time a pitstop when you need extra time to get tyres up to temp or something?
Yep, if they tyres are already warmed, you can pop in and get the undercut by being faster, quicker. But, if there’s no heaters and the rubber isn’t sticky cold - you’ll lose lots more places, and add more risk of crashing, changing of places, shuffling of the feild etc.
