Or we could stop racing in the middle east....

The irony is almost comical.

Probably the US too, based on climate of the three American circuits. I found this cool site and compared a few.

That's pretty cool. Miami and Vegas are pretty stupid too, but it seems like if America was raced at a sensible time at the beginning or end of the season it wouldn't be too bad. Well for now, anyway..

Thank you, that's incredibly kind of you.

The link actually did load for me, it just gives my Lemmy app a fit I guess and I thought the error message was funny. I appreciate you trying to help though, thanks!

The ACO started requiring reasonable cockpit temps at Le Mans in 2007, I'm kind of surprised the FIA hasn't already looked into driver cooling for F1.
