Watch The Mortifying Pit Stop That Lost The Monaco Grand Prix
Watch The Mortifying Pit Stop That Lost The Monaco Grand Prix-July 2024
2024-02-19 EST 22:11:32

Daniel Ricciardo was doing so well at the Monaco Grand Prix. He claimed Red Bull’s first pole position since 2013, and his first at Monaco. He managed to keep his lead for much of the Monaco Grand Prix itself, where the narrow street circuit makes passes extremely hard. Then he got hosed by his own pit crew.

Ricciardo was called into the pits, but his pit crew had no tires. It was an unbelievable screw-up for a team so desperate to start winning again, and a driver whose mad skills (and ) over the weekend were worthy of the top spot on the podium.

Watch one of the most disheartening moments in motorsports, complete with Ricciardo’s reaction after the race.

"Where's the tyres?" - Relive Red Bull's pit stop nightmare

Ricciardo’s horrified response after the Monaco Grand Prix says it all. “Right now, I don’t want to hear it,” he said. “I want to get out of here, to be honest.”

Raising A Kid Costs Almost Exactly As Much As A Porsche 911 GT3 Cup
The latest article I came across on at Refinery 29 had a curious statistic: it now costs over $245,000 to raise a middle-class kid to the age of 18. That's an interesting number because it only costs (before tax) to buy a new 991-generation Porsche 911 GT3 Cup. No offense...

McLaren Had To Build Three F1 GTRs Because One Was Too Expensive
McLaren Had To Build Three F1 GTRs Because One Was Too Expensive
Ray Bellm ordered a McLaren F1 road car soon after the premier in 1992, but while he was racing Porsches, he realized an F1 race car could dominate everything. The problem for Ray is that McLaren wanted $1.5 million for a one-off race car. Since Bellm didn't have that kind...

McLaren Builds Time Machine, Skips Past Remaining F1 Shakedown Time
Look, McLaren, if you’re going to build a time machine, the key is to make it out of stainless steel. Bare stainless. And put some effort into it, eh? Some gadgets and baubles? Otherwise, it just looks like a plain silver 650S yoinked from Park Place’s back lot. Let’s be...
