Stop! Carry on... - Pit stop practice with a twist
Stop! Carry on... - Pit stop practice with a twist
Crisis at Enstone ! One of the team has mysteriously been called into an emergency meeting, just as pit-stop practice is about to begin ! We need a hero, or should we say a heroine…
As the team geared up for pit stop practice back at Lotus F1 Team HQ last week, an unexpected addition to the crew emerged to join the crowd… that of CNN presenter Amanda Davies !
Over the course of the afternoon, Amanda donned the black and gold uniform and got stuck in for a crash course in Formula 1 tyre changing technique ; taking the role of wheel man (or should we say wheel woman !) alongside the team’s regular pit-stop pros.
After a few trial runs, the challenge was to get as close as possible to the times set by the crew during a regular stop. Check out the video below to see how Amanda got on…

Mas... todas equipes tem boa eficiencia nas trocas e a Lotus está errando em pit stops constantemente... de forma irritante as vezes.
Cansei de ver trocas de pneus da Lotus em 4.5s.. 4.6s.. enquanto um bom pit stop é 3.1s.. 3.2s.
