Aston Martin are having a tough season but there was something to celebrate on Sunday in Barcelona. It was Aston Martin's pit crew who secured the fastest pit stop of the weekend, changing Lance Stroll's four tyres in 2.16 seconds.

Sergio Perez's pitstop took 2.18 seconds, just two hundredths of a second slower than Sunday afternoon's fastest time at the Barcelona circuit. Red Bull's second and sixth places ( Max Verstappen's pit stop) in Bahrain put Red Bull back in the lead, as rivals Mercedes and Williams picked up significantly fewer points.

The third time of the day was Nicholas Latifi's pit stop by Williams. His tyre change took five hundredths longer than Stroll's. Ferrari and Mercedes also find themselves back in the top-five. The fastest time of the season still stands at 1.93 seconds from Red Bull in the Bahrain Grand Prix.
