Nicola Hume speaks to sporting Sporting Director Jonathan Wheatley and Senior Engineer Rich Wolverson about the art of the Oracle Red Bull Racing pit stop team.

They discuss what it takes to join the pit stop team, and how everyone who travels juggles doing pit stops with other roles in the garage. They also talk about their own respective journeys to their current positions and how they are aiming to reclaim their world record, whilst also prioritising consistency over one-off headline grabbing stops.

Also, in our 'Oracle Red Bull Racing in 100 Objects' section, Jonathan and Rich bring an object that symbolises their experience as part of the travelling team.
Finally, they take on the HP Poly Challenge, as they have to identify different bits of audio in just 1.82 seconds, the length of the team’s fastest ever pit stop.
