F1 pit stops are such an amazing coreography of people and technology performing a process in much less time than can be explained. It is such a good example for a process. A process example for a designed process, SMED but also wastes and many other continuos improvement concepts. The performance of the process is measured in seconds for changing the tires and adjusting the car. But the difference is made in tenths of a second from team to team. A process oriented for ultimate performance, that can make a team lose the race. When the difference is made in tenths of seconds and races are won for a couple of seconds, you need to squeeze the last drop of performance from every process! @ image credits Fdataanalysis #f1 #performance #process #continuousimprovement #advancedorganisationalconsulting

🎯 F1 drivers don’t just drive—they command every second. Are you commanding yours? 🏎️ 💡 An F1 driver knows the race can be won or lost in fractions of a second. They don’t just react—they predict, prepare, and pivot when needed. Imagine living your life with that kind of precision—where your focus isn’t scattered but razor-sharp, and every action propels you toward victory. 🚦 Scan the QR code and learn how to master your moments—your race starts now! #RPMFormula #MasterYourMindset #business #success #mindset

F1 drivers have reaction times of 0.2 to 0.3 seconds.  Average human beings are somewhere in the 0.7 to 0.8-second range. This basically means by the time an F1 driver has launched off the starting line, most of us are still wondering if it’s safe to take our foot off the brake. Recently, we had the chance to dive into this insane world. We worked with the Red Bull team to capture just how lightning-fast these drivers are compared to the rest of us mere mortals. Spoiler: the difference is ridiculous. In Formula 1, the start is everything. Get it right, and you’re gaining places on the track.  Get it wrong, and you’re losing them in a heartbeat. That’s why drivers train relentlessly to work with their trainers on reflex and reaction exercises before every race. Milliseconds matter, and they’ll do whatever it takes to shave off even the tiniest fraction of a second. But it’s not just about speed either. F1 drivers are literally operating on another level entirely. While the average road car driver is focusing on what’s immediately in front of them, F1 drivers are focusing 3 times further ahead… all while traveling 3 times faster! It’s a level of skill that’s hard to comprehend until you see it in action. Big thanks to the Red Bull team for letting us be a part of this experience. We loved capturing every split-second moment - though I think I’ll leave the tests to the professionals next time!

🚀🏎️ 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐋𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠-𝐐𝐮𝐢𝐜𝐤 𝐑𝐞𝐟𝐥𝐞𝐱𝐞𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐅1 𝐃𝐫𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬: 🏎️🚀 Ever wondered why F1 drivers seem almost superhuman in their reactions? Their reflexes are not just about natural talent but intense training and focus. In the high-speed world of F1, split-second decisions can mean the difference between a safe journey and a potential accident. Reflex training is crucial for drivers to navigate these intense situations with precision. 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐒𝐩𝐞𝐞𝐝: While the average person has a reaction time of about 0.25 seconds, F1 drivers react in around 0.2 seconds. This slight edge is a game-changer on the track. 𝐈𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐭 𝐨𝐧 𝐋𝐚𝐩 𝐓𝐢𝐦𝐞𝐬: Even seemingly trivial things can lead to big differences in lap times. For instance, reacting 0.05 seconds faster can shave crucial milliseconds off each lap, potentially changing the race outcome. 𝐐𝐮𝐢𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐑𝐞𝐟𝐥𝐞𝐱𝐞𝐬: The F1 driver known for having the quickest reflexes is often highlighted as Lewis Hamilton. His ability to make rapid decisions and precise movements sets him apart in the highly competitive world of F1. 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐃𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: These drivers aren't just born with quick reflexes; they undergo rigorous training to sharpen their skills. Kudos to them for their dedication and for giving us an exhilarating show. Hats off! 🎩👏 Like this post? 👉 follow Kason Y., for daily insights and discussions.

Imagine the physical demands of driving an F1 car at 300 km/h. Immense G-forces, split-second reflexes, and unwavering focus.  For these athletes, every ounce of strength and endurance matters. That’s where RSQ1 comes in. 👀 By using targeted electrostimulation, RSQ1 ensures drivers can optimize muscle engagement and enhance core strength, allowing them to maintain control during high-speed turns. Plus, its accelerated recovery powers quick muscle repair after grueling races, keeping drivers at their peak, both mentally and physically. RSQ1 isn't just a tool: it’s the competitive edge. 🔥 Like us, do you always go for first place? Let's join forces and start with a DM.  🔸 RSQ1 📍 Locate your nearest RSQ1 🔸 Questions? Send us a DM

I am fascinated by the F1 pit crew. More than 20 people make up the F1 pit crew. They are responsible for stabilising the car, changing the tyres, making adjustments to the aerodynamics, and safely releasing the car. Each team has one pit crew that services both cars throughout the weekend. Each one has an important role elsewhere in the team, but trains to be a part of the pit crew. This got me wondering: Who is in your team? With the different areas of your life and the different roles that you play, who constitutes your team? Just like the pit crew members having specific roles that they play, you need to have some sort of crew to assist you to achieve your goals, in your personal life and in your career. So, the question is- Who is in your corner? What value is each bringing to the table? Is there an area that needs a "crew mamber"?

Visibility is a critical factor for Formula 1 drivers, especially during races under wet conditions. When heavy rain falls on the circuit, drivers face reduced visibility and the challenge of driving at high speeds. F1 drivers rely on their training and experience to maintain vision on the track. #HowDoF1DriversSeeInTheWet
