There is a building in Sydney full of very smart engineering types who work for the mob that sell the dry ice to the teams... there may be another chemical based solution to cooling drivers.
Or more logically, the teams could be mandated to build a cool cell around their drivers, including their feet, completely insulated from the floor of the car (and the hot exhaust underneath)... crank up minimum weight by 20kg to cover the additional material...
