What is the impact of Adidas' new CLIMACOOL System cooling jacket on F1 driver performance and safety, and what prompted its development?

Mercedes drivers George Russell and Andrea Kimi Antonelli have been seen wearing Adidas' CLIMACOOL System, a new cooling jacket designed to improve driver performance in hot conditions. The jacket, which uses cooling fans and insulating materials, has shown to almost double the cooling effect of traditional ice vests. This is particularly relevant given recent F1 rule changes mandating driver cooling aids for races exceeding 31°C ambient temperature.",
