Blink and you’ll miss it—but world championships are won in those blinks. This episode takes you behind the wheel guns with Mercedes Grand Prix pit crew member, Ryan McGarva and we explore how elite teams engineer speed and consistency, on demand.
We break down the anatomy of a perfect stop: roles and responsibilities, and the language that keeps everyone aligned. You’ll hear how the crew is selected, cross-trained, and conditioned; why repetition turns pressure into pattern; and how data, and debriefs fuel marginal gains week after week. We dig into handover discipline, dealing with the unexpected elite mindset needed in this critical role for competitive advantage.
This is a masterclass in turning milliseconds into medals—and a playbook for any environment where performance, safety, and teamwork decide the result.
