Formula 1 cars are seen moving rapidly from side to side during the formation lap. Sometimes they are seen doing the same thing when driving behind the safety car.

There are several reasons why F1 drivers zig-zag. #WhyDoF1DriversZigZag

The fastest Formula One pit stop is 1.82 seconds, achieved by Red Bull Racing during the 2019 Brazilian Grand Prix at Autódromo José Carlos Pace in São Paulo, Brazil, on 17 November 2019. If you compare it with the pit stop in the 50s, the drivers could get a coffee and maybe even a short stroll. Reducing the time it takes to maintain a machine or to perform a changeover is a challenge for any manufacturer in the world. Both can benefit the SMED (Single Minute Exchange of Dies) technique. At Toyota, in France, the maintenance teams are consistently trained to maintain the machines and the robots so that production never stops. They learn to repair the machines before the buffers are consumed (only a few minutes). They must not only fix the problem but fix it quickly. The SMED method consists in identifying the operations which can be done beforehand, and anticipating as many tasks as possible. It also consists in making it easier to change a die: clips instead of bolts, easy-to-use tooling, etc. As Shigeo Shingo said “Only the final turn of the bolt secures the part in its place.” And you, what are your changeover times? A couple seconds, a couple minutes, or a couple hours?
