Red Bull no longer fastest in pit lane, McLaren fastest in Bahrain

As usual, in 2022, the pit stop times will be accurately tracked. After all, precious seconds can be gained or lost in the pit lane. Last season Red Bull Racing were the masters of the pit lane, with times regularly around two seconds. This season it's all different, as times are just a little slower than last year due to the new tyres.

Moreover, Red Bull can no longer be found at the top of the pit stop times. They have traded the top spots for eighth and 10th. The fastest pit stop in Bahrain was made by McLaren, a team that did not perform well at all in Bahrain. They were nothing more than a rearguard team in the opening race of this season, but they had the fastest pit stop.

Ferrari was the only team with a time close to Daniel Ricciardo's pit stop. They ended up coming two hundredths short with Carlos Sainz's pit stop. Furthermore, at Alpine and Williams they also had fast stops and AlphaTauri also made one of the fastest pit stops of the race with Yuki Tsunoda.
