Love the sound, not so much on the re-fueling.
Now when refueling banned, look at the number of technologies designed to make pitstop faster.
Swirl front jack with quick release, rear jack with quick release, traffic light indication. Also the amount of work for each member changing tires. A lot more pressure on the wheel gunner now. Also the design of the wheel lock and thread courses. All of these trying make 0.1 second faster. And thus making the 1.89 secs pit stop by Williams, and 1.92 by RBR!

Fitness of wheel off/on crew were significantly trained. They are more like athletes than before.

Thanks for the post (and memories). I'll never get bored of watching the video of Montoya stuffing Schumi at the bus stop in '04.
