Formula 1 Pit Stop 1950 Vs 2013 !!

 

Observe how the art of the Pit Stop has evolved since 1950

In this correlation video, we see Bill Holland coming in for a pit quit amid the 1950 Indianapolis 500 (he would go ahead to complete second). In those days just four team individuals were permitted to chip away at the auto. Pit stop time: 67 seconds.

Next, we see a Ferrari pit prevent from the 2013 Australian Grand Prix in Melbourne. I trust the driver is Fernando Alonso (who might go ahead to complete fifth). Pit stop time: ~3 seconds

While this isn't a flawless correlation, it's as yet intriguing to see the movement. The 1950s team was just four individuals first of all. Additionally, refueling has been restricted since 2010 in Formula 1 which would unquestionably include at a couple of more seconds.

Innovations such as the pivoting jack—which allows the front jack man to step out of the way before he lowers the car—continued to shave fractions-of-a-second off stop times, leading up to Red Bull's record near the end of 2013. According to F1 Fanatic's statistics, Red Bull continue to lead the way, having made the fastest stop at four races so far this year. Williams have set the pace three times, while Mercedes, despite their overall dominance, only went quickest at Silverstone. Looking ahead, Red Bull's record from 2013 will probably fall at some point—maybe not this season, but eventually. Still, there is a limit to how fast humans can move, no matter how quickly their tools can remove and replace the wheel nuts. Pit stop regulations will surely change again in the future (Wheatley alluded to it in his interview), resetting the standard. In the meantime, smooth stops without any mistakes will continue to be the goal. After all, smooth is fast.
