An exclusive look into how the new cooling device approved for 2025 will work
The FIA’s prototype method for its new Formula 1 cooling device involves cooled water being pumped around driver overalls, with different design approaches permitted in future rules, Motorsport.com can reveal. Last week, the results of the latest meeting of the F1 Commission declared that a new driver cooling provision will be added to F1’s rules from 2025, following the extreme heat encountered in the 2023 Qatar Grand Prix.
