The Mercedes driver expects that Formula 1 will take some time to move to this sustainable measure. George Russell wants F1 to investigate more durable tire covers rather than ban them in the future, which he says is “dangerous”.
Kiello is set to help increase the sustainability of the championship after being one of the main power producers during the Grand Prix weekend. F1 tire supplier Pirelli conducted several tests during the year with a tire that does not require covers and can warm up quickly on the track before a timed lap. However, after the data was collected, the F1 Commission had a meeting at the Belgian GP and the teams pushed back the proposal to 2025 at the earliest.
