I actually lifted an F1 wheel at Silverstone, it weighs next to nothing, about 8 kilos I think the engineer said, you could easily lift it one handed.mzivtins wrote:Also (apologies for the double post) the video example of 'Silverstone GP 2012 GP3 - Trident Racing, Giovanni Venturini Pitstop [1080p][HD]' is not like for like, that would be the same as comparing me changing my bed sheets to changing a wheel on a formula one car.
Look at the crouched position of the front two tyre guys.
I do a lot of gym work, and if you asked me to do that by myself from that position with a heavier f1 wheel i would tell you where to go, you would damage your back for a lifetime.
The pace and requirements dictate numbers, safety dictates speed limits.
