New Formula 1 Pit Stop World Record



As of 2010, Formula One racing does not allow refueling at pit stops. They are only for tire changes. DHL runs a competition for the fastest pit crews, and it appears that Red Bull will be the winners this year. During the Formula 1 Brazilian Grand Prix on Sunday, they serviced Max Verstappen's car in a mere 1.82 seconds, setting a new world record! Verstappen went on to win the race. (via Digg)

With three guys to each tire and a total of almost 18 guys over the wall and already in position before the car even gets there, yeah, it becomes understandable.
