Episode 17: F1 Pit Lane Mishaps


Listen Later

When all goes right, a Formula 1 pit stop is a symphony of perfection, with its beats measured in milliseconds; a synergy of tasks coming together with a singular focus… to return the car and its driver back to the track faster than the competition. What happens when even the smallest element of this orchestrated ballet goes awry, one tiny misstep upsetting the rehearsed flow? Pull up a chair and join us at the lake as Steve offers firsthand accounts of his experiences - the good, the bad, and the ugly - including his vivid, intense descriptions of what is arguably the most dramatic pit lane accident in Grand Prix history: Benetton's explosive 1994 fuel fire, in Hockenheim, Germany.
