    1950: the drivers could get a cup of tea and maybe even a short stroll if it was allowed.
    2000: drivers barely even take a breath and the pitstop is done

Only 2 guys allows on tires, so they run from tire one to the next and have really nailed down the motions to do them all as fast as they can while the drivers swop out and fuel gets topped up.
