For Red Bull Racing, the Monaco Grand Prix was one with two faces. Max Verstappen won quite convincingly, but teammate Sergio Perez saw his chances of a good ranking go up in smoke after a crash in qualifying. Yet the Mexican did top one list. Red Bull's pit crew managed to change the four tyres on Perez's RB19 the fastest.

Perez's pit stop was finished in a mere 2.15 seconds. There were only two faster pitstops in 2023. Ferrari still has the fastest time standing at 2.10 seconds in Saudi Arabia. Red Bull completed a pit stop in 2.11 seconds at the Australian GP.

Thanks to a first and third time in Monaco, Red Bull has reduced the gap to the Maranello-based racing team to five points. Ferrari currently stands on 162 points, Red Bull thus has 157 after six Grands Prix. Alpine follows in third place, but the team is incredibly far behind. The French pit crew collected 92 points to date.
