Watch the Worst 2013 Le Mans Pit Stop

The 2013 24 Hours of Le Mans was both spectacular and tragic, with Audi’s exerted win, obtained in harsh weather conditions, being overshadowed by Allan Simonsen’s death. But 24 hours means a lot of time, and, as one would expect, the race was seasoned with other Le Mans characteristic moments as well.

Yes, pit stop failures are more than familiar with Le Mans, as they are with Formula One, but the video you’re about to see below is worthy of the “worst pit stop of all time hall of fame”, if such an accolade would exist. The unfortunate pit stop happened at the Ferrari stand, and truth be told we’re not at all surprised, because the Scuderia folks manage to screw something up almost every time.

And it’s not about leaving the stand with the fuel pump still attached to the car, the Ferrari 458 Italia driver ends up crashing another race car as well. With all the help he can get from his drunk negligent crew. See for yourself below.
