Yeah,I missed it. What did they do to Leclerc? Slow stop?

LR wheel gun failed.I missed it. What did they do to Leclerc? Slow stop?
Barrichello never had a duff pitstop. This is the Irvine Clause.Barrichello Clause.
Nine-point-something seconds.I missed it. What did they do to Leclerc? Slow stop?
3 seconds of that was Norris' inlapWow Norris gained 6 seconds on Hamilton during the pitstop and the out lap. Those Mclaren's sure can heat their tyres up fast.
Zhou bowling ricciardo into two Alpines did him no favors.Unsure if Zhou's adventures on the start are a main cause of it but De Vries might be able to equal Ricciardo's run so far.
Was referring to how Barri had to stop before the finish line to let Schumi past.Barrichello never had a duff pitstop. This is the Irvine Clause.
That was on the Red Bull Ring, right? I think I saw that live on TV back in the day...Was referring to how Barri had to stop before the finish line to let Schumi past.
Yeah, it was called A1 ring back then IIRC.That was on the Red Bull Ring, right? I think I saw that live on TV back in the day...
Guess not.I hope for a return to form forAlonsoAston Martin.
Guess so.Other teams have caught up [...] Aston are falling into that "great first few races, then drop off" territory.
Quickest of the season so far surely?1.9 seconds for Checo.
Unconfirmed. 1.98 is the current fastest so it is very possible.Quickest of the season so far surely?
When the BTCC introduced mandatory pitstops in 1998, they only had to change two tyres so there were only two tyre crews. Pitstops went from 12s at the start to 4s in the space of a year thanks to practice and spotting the importance of pit stops and undercuts but it did mean that when a four-tyre change was needed, sometimes at Thruxton but more often for wet races, it meant that the two tyre crews had to change all four. That did add an extra dimension to the stops and maybe other series could have that as a tactic for extending pitstop lengths, however contrived it might seem.While we all love these rapid pitstops
Maybe the FIA should limit the number of pit crew working on the car.
We have 3 for each tire(gun user, tire remover, tire fitter) which makes 12
Front jackman
Rear jackman
Spare rear jackman
2 Stabilizers
Thus would make it around 17
There should just be a crew for tires, the gun user should remove and add the new tire.
I wish teams did not have to change all 4 tires as "SET" but could change a side be it left side or rears.When the BTCC introduced mandatory pitstops in 1998, they only had to change two tyres so there were only two tyre crews.
