Pit stop
Each question is one lap. The car brakes into the pit box and the crew hold up one tyre per answer. A right answer is a fast stop and the car overtakes a rival; the race ends on a podium.
How to play Pit stop
- Press Play and the car pulls into the pit lane.
- Read the question and pick the tyre with the right answer: click it, or press 1 to 4, A to D, or T and F.
- Watch the stop, then race on to the next lap.
Right and wrong answers
A right answer is a fast stop: the tyre flies on, the gun whirs, and the car boosts out past a rival. A wrong one is a slow stop: the gun stalls, a rival passes, and the right board pulses green. The clock pauses between laps.
