Must be difficult to find so many people called Jack
McLaren only needs a slight car performance increase before Red Bull has a problem. But, getting that increase will be tough. Hope they can still get it in this season.
Undoubtedly there’s still performance to be unlocked as they understand how the upgrades are working in the real world compared to the wind tunnel. A McLaren on the top step of a proper GP podium could be on the cards before the end of the season.
Well they’re still a half second behind the Bull. When it’s half that I’ll believe you.
They’re half a second behind one of the Red Bulls. The other one seems to have given up. If McLaren can regularly put two drivers on the podium then RBR have a problem next year.
Red Bull probably stopped developing their car months ago, they’ll be ok with getting overtaken by the pack by the end of the season.

Weird “this video is not available.” But it’s mclaren’s account it looks like?
Even the Alfa mechanic at the end thought it was a hot pitstop 🤣
The guy who gives the green light has to take in a lot of information very quickly!
But, whatever happened to the minimum 2 seconds requirement FIA set?
It wasn’t a requirement, they made changes with the intention that it would always take at least two seconds.
The teams just adapted and got better again.
Well as far as I know the pneumatic wheel thingies (can’t remember the right word for them) have a green light that switches on after 2 seconds. Before that you’re not allowed to send the car of.
It’s crazy to think there are 20 people directly involved in a pit stop. (21 if you count the guy stood around not labelled or doing anything, but he doesn’t have a helmet.)
Incredible work!! A shining example of good teamwork, co-ordination, and everyone knowing exactly what their role is.
How long before they can change the wheels without stopping? Sounds dumb now but we’ll probably have that technology soon
I don’t see how that’s physically possible, you have to swap the whole wheel, there will always be some stopped time involved in that
No lie I saw that dude on the left in the power stance and knew shit was gunna go down. I give all credit to him
The gunner is there to ward off predators during the vulnerable state of pitting.
