These guys are sooo fast they had to put the video in slow motion

What schooling and training do you need to get such a job?

[BrandzF1]

@bimbus111 most of the time they have other jobs within the team, like a truck driver :)

[nbaalltheway]

@bimbus111 these type of job you don't just come by, these guys are not just people that put on wheels, they are top of the line Engineers and some smart people but as far as school, i would say at least uni for Engineering and computering, while working at a work shop (mechanical engineering/auto shop) then work your way up to modding cars then finish your schooling and then go to your big racing tracks where they hold f1 and ask for any type of work experience, be willing to work for free.

[ThePopimanos]

[guitarkayschi139]

@hypno159753 no that´s the real speed how the crew works in a race :D 3 minutes 7 seconds a pit stop at mercedes gp ^^

i have those same alpinestar gloves in yellow ;)

[ozbucket69]

colour co-ordinated gloves, to act as kinda markers of where the wheel needs to stop and when they have finished changing the tyres

[sonyvaio980]

its like an art getting that right. I love the fact that if you get it wrong, you could lose the race. Red Bull still have the best pit stops though.

[TheSpanky717]

There should be music

[FISHURMOMBALL]

These helmets should be in Halo or something like that lol

[snedz10]
