High-intensity, quick and a need to be error-free, pit-stops are a critical part of Grand Prix racing, as it can mean the difference between winning a race and losing one. However, there are times when they can go horribly wrong, especially in these ten chosen confusing moments!

The pit crew watching on the TV screen to then realise they were filmed because they were sitting in the pit instead of doing their jobs was hilarious.
That's some mockumentary gold right there. Straight from The Office.
That was awesome "what? Hes in the pits NOW?!"
It's just hilarious , and clearly no one neither heard the radio call (if there was one) nor saw the car stop in front of them because they were absorbed by the race on the screens
funny theory but I think they just saw the car or got the call. Their faces were towards where the car stood. Also someone must've told them at that point
that should have been #1
Pain Well at least we weren’t No.1

"first time?"
I will never unsee now lol
he was just spying for future pit stops strategies
Credit to the pit crew who discovered Gio’s puncture and knew what to do right away, although they didn’t score points it saved his race and potentially a lot of damage, give the man a raise!!
well they should know b efore they get the tires out but ye

The pitcrew realising the car was waiting was the most hilarious thing ever
I agree hehehe

@@f181234 Boutsen accidentally hitting a mechanic in Brazil scared me a bit when I first saw it. It’s no wonder limits were implemented later on lol

"Major-mal-mis-organisation problem" Legendary. Rest in peace, Murray.
A forgotten aspect of the infamous moment at Nurburgring in 1999 for Ferrari, Mika Salo, who was (as it turned out) running in his final race as a substitute for Michael Schumacher (who broke his leg at Silverstone that year), had a slow pit stop himself. There was a mix of tyres in the pit box, Salo surprised the team by the timing of his stop, being stationary for 38 seconds and this affected the preparation for Irvine's stop as well with the result for all to see
i think the main reason for the irvine shambles was he was on slicks - it started to rain so they quickly brought him in - but for more slicks - a waste of time which even confused the pit crew (i'm sure the guy was querying a slick tyre since it didn't make sense).
@The Piran One conspiracy theory - eddie led hakkinen by the last race - meaning he'd win the title if merely hakkinen failed to finish or eddie finished ahead of him in the race - ferrari wrecking his chances wouldn't have left things that easy for him by the last race.
@@mrgobrien the strategy for the Japanese Grand Prix that year was for Schumacher to challenge Hakkinen, keeping him in second, and with Irvine third it would have been enough to have the Ulsterman clinch the title. However, Hakkinen proved to be too fast at Suzuka to hold back in second and so he won a second title
@@SiVlog1989 yes - i was addressing the allegation that ferrari were trying to sabotage irvine - but a mere non finish in that last race by hakkinen would have given the title to irvine - so i say any ferrari sabotage would've occurred lots not just at the nurburgring (to prevent irvine being in contention by the final race) - anyway which i say was caused by rain suddenly starting but then suddenly stopping minutes later just as irvine entered the pits and that confusing the mechanics etc over which tyres to switch to.
6:28 The look on his face when it dawns on him that there's a car in the pit box waiting to be serviced! 😂
"Wait, there's a race going on?"
“Save it. Nothing youse could say could make that any better. ... Just save it.” I was so furious that day... Daniel was completely and utterly robbed of victory because of what happened.
And for this reason it should be #1 on this list.
I am still furious TO THIS DAY!
They were RedBullshit that afternoon
Well, what about Irvine then. That scene cost him the title, though I'm definitely not mad about that. Wouldn't have been deserved anyway.
@@TheYoshi463 why would it not have been deserved? Just a question i know very little about the ‘99 season
3:51 ...they are having committee meeting abt it....stick it in and send him out😂😂🔥🔥
I can't imagine how stressful it is to work as a pit stop crew. You know that sooner or later you're gonna mess up, and can only hope that it's not today.

It wasn't confusing one it was mechanical problem

Monaco 2016 was heartbreaking for Ricardo. When they’re on the podium, you can see how hard Danny is trying not to breakdown.

He was mad af
After that redbull team grow up!
A note on the Anthony Davidson pit stop: He hit a groundhog halfway around the lap and didn't realize he had damage until the final chicane. So he pitted at the absolute last moment to get a new front wing and the pit crew didn't know he was coming in.
And IIRC Super Aguri were in the first box.
You would think at least someone in the pit crew would have seen him going past the pit box as he drove in. Nope, just watching TV.
Hi, how are you? Thanks for the like and comment!
Is the groundhog okay?
@@hashdrag676googleuser3 obviously he would have died
Mercedes in Monaco 2021: hold my wheelnut, we want to win this
Mercedes' Top Comment aged badly haha
axle: "if you say so..." Dark Mini: "you learn well, friend"
6:29 this is comedy gold - the man zoning out, then glancing to a side and getting the shock of his life
The comical thing about the Malaysia '01 one is that The Michael still won that race, despite being sat there for ages. Also part of the reasoning for why that stop took so long was that they were trying to scoop out a metric ton of gravel from Rubens' sidepods.
They even got 1-2! 😅
Well, that was thanks to the Safety Car and Ferrari's brave call to use Inters when everyone else used Heavy Wets.
@@TheYoshi463 Still a extraordinary job form Michael Rubens had the same tires btw and Michael was way faster than him
@@EAGYSL Well obviously it is just Rubens
wait? So Ferrari took the risk of blowing MSC race in the pits because they wanted to do the right job on Rubens car? Thats not possible, people always told me Ferrari only worked for Michael and never did nothing for Barrichelo!
Super Aguri pit crew: "Hey what's that car doing over th- OH SHIIIII"
Actually, they only checked when they saw themselves on TV because they were sitting in the garage instead of doing their job :-)
If there's one team you'd expect this from, it's Super Aguri.
Remember a lot about f1 2021 pit crew bug
Would really like a video where some of those pit crews were interviewed and explained what they remember about those stops and what went wrong

Always painful to see a driver’s race ruined by something beyond their control

7:10 Crofty: Did he make the call? Did Red Bull make the call? Dr. Helmut Marko: I make the calls...
@a real life priest at Red Bull Racing Hannah Schmitz is the race strategist who calls the race strategy
Red Bull called Daniel in for the soft tyres, but when they saw hamilton on the ultrasoft they changed strat last moment to the supersoft

When you realized that 7 out of 10 from this list came from either Red Bull, Mercedes, and Ferrari.
Because most teams only are in F1 for a few years and then go bankrupt...
When you realise Minardi finally came first at something
@@squeakybunny2776 Also because they are top teams, If a minor team does it wont be shocking like a front runner.
@@Enpamonhado Kinda irrelevant, we had Gio's stop in Spain (nr 10.), Anthony Davidson's stop in Canada 2007 (nr. 3) and Esteban Tuero's stop in Argentina 1998 (nr 1.). None of these teams are top teams in any way.
And Ferrari in 4 of them if i'm not mistaken.. i didn't count, but just saw a lot of red
I love the old school commentary, the Ferrari missing tire commentary was great banter between both announcers
6:36 they even bump into each other 😂😂😂
"Stick it on and send him out!" That happened like 15 years before I even started watching F1 and it's still such an iconic line to me
irvine was already on slicks and it started to rain - so ferrari quickly brought him in - for more slicks - that is why the pit guy was querying things when handed the tyre to put it on.
Best part is Anthony waiting for pit crew at pit stop 😂
I think he'd run into something and broke his wing if I remember correctly
Yeah, it looked like he's just chilling there 🤣🤣
@@reptongeek Yeah, he hit a groundhog IIRC and had to dive into the pits without telling the team

Back in the day I worked on an ALMS team. We had a couple of let’s say quirky pit stops like that in the beginning which we learnt a lot from. Needless to say we learned to have backups for everything at close proximity and everyone on the other side of the pit wall had a job if things went sideways during a stop.

Classic Murray "there was a major mal-mis-organization there"
I like how the Minardi refueler was blaming fuel cap for not receiving any fuel
Yes! It was the all-conquering Minardi team by the way
Dang watching russell and danny ric pit stop just hurt every fricking times
2:18 never knew f1 cars had reverse gear
how the confusion could have been handled at 4:58 of this video repair the damage, and add more fuel if needed, then come back in for the tires when the team is ready to switch
In my opinion a most confusing pit stop occurred in 1974 during Austrian Grand Prix at Zeltweg when, due to a misunderstanding with his crew, Regazzoni wasted a lot of time in the box to change a punctured rear tyre. This mistake contributed greatly to the final defeat of Regazzoni for the World Championship, won for only three points by Fittipaldi
