It’s so crazy how fast a pit stop is in F1

Only fronts in the old Indy 500 clip.

That was cool. Thanks. 22 guys on an F1 pitstop now. Not 4. And they’re under 2 seconds for four tires. No refueling anymore. Too many fires.

And I’m not sure of the years, but I guess 1955 to 1964 the Indy 500 was also a points paying F1 event.

Between 1998 and 2004, IndyCar mandated a 35 gallon fuel cell. The best pitstops my team performed were around 13.5 seconds. Now the fuel cell capacity is just 18.5 gallons. With the smaller fuel cells, a fast stop is about 7.5 seconds.

Pretty cool.
The first one was painful watching the ONE tire guy.

That's slow...Red Bull is able to do sub two secs some races.... crazy the level of tech!
