"Racing Bulls" driver Liam Lawson spoke about the requirement to use cooling vests.
İdman.Biz reports that the idea of vests gained momentum after the 2023 Singapore race, which caused many drivers to seek medical help.
"I would be very disappointed if they forced us to wear them all the time. I don't see any point in it if we are uncomfortable. There is really no need for it. There are other things that have evolved over time. Halo saves lives, HANS. Of course, these things are very important for driver safety.
I don't think cooling vests are the same thing. We train very, very hard to drive these cars, and I don't think most of us need them, so why are they forcing us? If it's not necessary, I'm not going to use it," - "RacingNews365" quotes Lawson.
