Tomas Arango FerreiraJul 28, 2012 Want to be one of them) no comparison to Hussein Bolt. That is genetics, hard work an just a gift he has. You Dont have to be special to change a tyre
Tomas Arango FerreiraJul 28, 2012 Haha funny comments, just saying..... If their fulltime job is changing 1 tyre which has only 1 center nut and they train for it all year round then they better be fast! Otherwise fire them and train another 4 monkeys to be fast (not saying i wouldnt
Sivert GrandeJul 27, 2012 @Patrick, I think you're the pinhead here. Usain Bolt? Really? You don't have have to run fast to change a tire on a formula 1 car. Like I said there are at least 20 people in the crew. They just have to move their arms real quick.
Patrick JosephJul 26, 2012 If its a new record it must be because it's not so easy to be that fast. Come on Todd. You are a massive pinhead. I guess Hussein bolt isn't that good. All you have to do is move your legs very fast. He gets good shoes and Gatorade on top of that.
Sivert GrandeJul 26, 2012 @Das Stig, Every single wheel on a formula 1 car is attached with just one bolt, and there are at least 20 people in the crew. I think Todd is being very realistic.
Matt PiccoloJul 25, 2012 @ Todd... Let's see u do that
Das StigJul 25, 2012 my car weighs 2984 pounds. with Todd's logic I can change all my tires in 6 seconds. ya right.
Todd VersteeghJul 25, 2012 Well..for crying out loud, with 4 tire changers all sitting stationary with a jackman lifting a car that weighs all of 640kg (1,411 lbs) I would certainly hope that they could perform a tire change in under 3 seconds.
John SerelyJul 25, 2012 Wow less than 3 seconds, I wish I could do that...
Chris PenzaJul 25, 2012 They were especially bad is Bahrain
Josh BanningJul 25, 2012 This just about makes up for all their crappy pitstops at the start of the season
LyompJul 25, 2012 That is absolutely ridiculous. Just count 2 seconds out loud and imagine all 4 tires being changed.

Samuel BonordenAug 23, 2012 He probably had to be told to go because it was so fast
Josh SantoroJul 27, 2012 They need these guys at Walmart lol
Malachi MonteiroJul 25, 2012 Nice pit stop, That was one of the best races I have seen (speaking as an Alonso fan, not a Hamilton one)
Bradley MasonnJul 25, 2012 @manuel, they don't refuel anymore because they have got a huge fuel tank behind the seat that has layers so it doesn't affect weight distribution and lasts the whole race
Matthew McKernanJul 25, 2012 @bob, he made an illegal off the track pass on button near the end of the race and was given a 20 second penalty a little after the race which put him in 5th I think.
Justin BrestJul 25, 2012 good god that's incredible
Bob JonesJul 25, 2012 I thought Vettel was third, how'd Raikkonen get past him?
Carlton SalmonJul 25, 2012 @ Chris. Alonso won, Button second, Raikkonen third.
I've had to watch that a few times and I'm still in disbelief in how quick that pitstop was! Well done McLaren Mercedes.
