Pit stops are not as quick as they were before the summer break due to changes in the regulations, but Red Bull Racing's pit crew are still lightning fast. At the Dutch Grand Prix, Max Verstappen's four tyres were changed in just over two seconds.
The Austrian formation needed just 2.15 seconds to provide Verstappen with fresh rubber. The 2021 record stands at 1.88 seconds, but that will remain the case for the rest of the year as the FIA has made all pit stops slower to ensure safety.
Red Bull has twice as many points as Mercedes meanwhile in the battle for the DHL Fastest Pitstop ranking. Where the team of Verstappen and Sergio Perez is on 329 points after thirteen GPs, the World Cup rival follows with 162 points on P2. Williams has so far collected 144 points.
