3 punctures in 10 laps - what am I doing wrong

Was doing a 60min online race.

As soon as I live the pit with new tires and around 35l of fuel my engineer keeps saying that tire pressure is low so I must avoid curbs. I do that but my hear left tire temp keeps increasing and reaches 95 Celcius (203 Fº). After 3 laps my tire says goodbye. Go back to the pit, change all tires, go back to track: the same thing happens after 4 laps - this time front left tire. I head to pits again do the same thing and go back to the track. As soon as I live the pits I hear the same messages from the race engineer but this time the tire explodes right after I cross the finish line.

I'm using the aggressive setup as a baseline with some changes: wings at 1, break bias at 46, CT at 2 and ABS at 1. Didn't touch tire pressure, using exactly what the aggressive setup gave me.

Not driving like crazy neither.

95DegC!! Are you sure? Is that across the tyre or just the inside reading? What pressure are your tyres when u leave the pit? What's your camber angles?
