The issue of cockpit temperatures will be formally discussed by Formula 1 teams and the FIA in a meeting of the technical advisory committee after the Mexican GP.
The TAC is the forum where future rules are discussed by the 10 team technical directors and the governing body, with F1’s technical chief Pat Symonds also contributing. In the wake of the Qatar GP the issue of high cockpit temperatures, which had not previously been on the radar, has been added to the agenda for the virtual gathering on 31 October. The FIA has already promised a full analysis of what happened in Qatar and its implications.
“It is true that in other categories you have different devices. “So I think it's something that over the next weeks we have to sit together with all the parties involved and come to a good conclusion. “I think it’s in the interest of nobody to continue like this and the drivers need to be more comfortable if we want to have them extract everything, and I think we should work together to achieve that.
