After his first pitstop his times were about at the pace of Massa and Vettel, maybe a bit better, so he would have been sixth, or maybe have been able to join that fight. But going by Monaco, I doubt that would have changed his position :-p It might have helped Massa keep his 4th spot though.
Yeah, these are times the FIA releases, we can only guess how much of it is driving through the pitlane (some 17 seconds?).
Blame the FIA for not giving the times cars were recorded as standing still.
But it does beautifully show, how Ferrari seem to be right on it with quick pitstops now and the one with Massa was just unfortunate (almost 2 seconds slower in total!)
Great to have back the pitstop times (Please FIA start giving us both the total AND the time the car was standing still).
It shows how Ferrari have really upped their game with the stops, they have joined Mercedes and Red Bull in the fastest pitstops top 10. Also nice to see how there is a markable difference between some teammates times. Shows its about the tyre change, but also about how the driver gets in, slows down and makes his getaway.
More interesting would be time lost in the pits relative to speeding down the pit straight. I.e. how many seconds is sacrificed during a pit stop. Drivers would cover the pitlane distance in say 10 seconds on the track but about 20 seconds in pit lane incl. stops.

Looks like you’re missing Alonso’s last stint!

Alonso made three pit stops.

You only had 2 stops in there, the green stint was missing.
thanks for correcting the mistake.

Strange to see Chandhok did not use the Medium tyres. Will he get a punishment for that, or does not doing to complete race distance mean its ok?

No he did, it’s a wrapping fault on the table, have fixed it.

It would have been nice to see where Button would have end up is he would have carry on his race without a problem.

Hopefully better than his start would suggest given that he can usually look after tyres well, providing he has grip ;)

Perez did a second stint of 33 laps. Wow, hadn’t he lost it at Lap 8 he could have run an 1-stopper.

Why did Chandok have such a long stop? Was this inspection for damage following his adventure accross the gravel?
Good effort by the Mercedes and Ferrari crew though. Barring Massa’s last stop, both did a top job

It is not a pit-stop time you have added – it is a pit-lane time. Or do you want to tell us they are changing 4 tyres 20 sec in F1? *thumbs down*

Which is why it clearly says “total time spent in the pits”.
Stationary times are not published in their entirety by the timekeeper so these are not available.

That would just introduce another variable as not every car goes along the straight at the same speed.
At any rate I did produce data along those lines once before but it just confused people.

inlap + outlap – 2 regular flying laps = time lost during a pit stop
