Inside the F1 Pit Lane - with Bernie Collins

F1 Explains

About this episode

It's where pit crews go to work, where strategies are decided and where races can be won and lost. 

Katie and Christian step into the Formula 1 pit lane to put your questions to former Aston Martin Head of Race Strategy Bernie Collins.

Bernie explains how the length and speed limit of the pit lane affects race strategy, why every team's pit box is different, what all the screens and buttons on the team pit wall are for and what it's like to be in the pit lane during a Grand Prix.
