The Eifel Grand Prix was won by Lewis Hamilton, but it is Red Bull Racing that once again takes off with the prize for the fastest pit stop. The pit stop for Verstappen was again under two seconds.

Red Bull's trademark is perhaps their pit stops. Since its entry into Formula 1, this is a part that Red Bull has focused on and since the banishment of refuelling, Red Bull is clearly the strongest team on this part. In the DHL Fastest Pit Stop ranking, Red Bull is head and shoulders above the rest.

Red Bull fastest

The Eifel Grand Prix was won by Hamilton, but Red Bull wins the award for the fastest pit stop. Verstappen's stop was 1.92 seconds and was the only one under two seconds. This is already the fifth pit stop of the season that takes less than two seconds. All these pit stops were by Red Bull.

In the classification, Red Bull is therefore even further ahead of the competition. Red Bull is now first with 330 points. Mercedes follows in second place with 172 points but is equal in number of points with Williams. At the bottom, we find Haas, who only managed to conquer one point in this championship.
