My thought exactly. When I read the title, I thought they're gonna get more people killed if they use Ferrari F1 pit crew as their learning benchmark lol.
As a die-hard Schumacher fan, I really wanted to see Massa take the title that year, so it was heartbreaking. And yet, I can't help but laugh every time I see the Ferrari crew looking so dejected, carrying that fuel hose back to the garage like a defeated army.
I suppose we shouldn't apply this "Ferrari system" to medical surgery—unless the patient is prepared to have their aorta dragged out along with the equipment.
My first thought was a conversation with a med student friend about the tension between medical research transparency and public policy. For example, it's good to get vaccinated, but some small fraction of people do have lasting side effects, and vaccine skeptics blow it out of proportion to support their views. So, medical professionals may be tempted to downplay vaccine injury to support public vaccination. Of course, doing so just erodes trust further if people notice. Anyways, perhaps this website is afraid people will hurt themselves with ambiguous information.
From your take aways from this article, what did they learn that was "common sense" exactly? I'm not aware of many people working a lot with handovers to ICUs unless they're already working in a hospital, so maybe it's hard to build up "common sense" from a situation you almost never encounter before you're there?
One cool aspect of working in a high-performance, critical setting, is you learn and absorb amazingly well-research practices without thinking about what it took for things to get there.
During the pandemic we had F1 teams attempting to solve all the world's problems with their superior tech and methods, but nothing really came of it. This story has overtones of 'here we go again'.
Truth be told, Ferrari don't have normal customers. All of them have to be extremely rich. Even then, they get treated as if they are 'tractor company owners' and not worthy. The F1 team has hundreds of people for running two cars, with those cars needing to drive no more than two hours at a time, with no need for the cars to last more than one season, at a cost of many millions.
Compare with the hospitality sector, where customers come from all walks of life, from all over the world. Money has to be made rather than just spent. Rarely is anyone kept waiting (in a decent hotel) and the customer has to come first, at all cost. There are handovers and checklists, which are no big deal.
From my experience of various hospital stays, where waiting is glacial, I honestly believe that just a little bit of 'customer first' attitude would be helpful. Just a few staff that have experience from the real world of hospitality would make a difference, and I just don't see the F1 people having the basic skills, even if they can do high-octane pitstops in seconds.
I don't know, I would worried about learning anything from Ferrari F1 team. As they refuse to learn. If it wasn't for their OP engines, they would not have been competitive FOR MANY years.
Their race strategy has been sabotaging drivers for YEARS.
TIL, I am a health professional on the internet. If you need help with any health problems I am here. /s
I'm a tifosi. But what a poor choice of F1 team to learn from successful, coordinated, well and timely executed pit stops.
Like one of those big banners they hold up at football (soccer) matches?

I first thought it’d be a “I’m 18+ pop-up” lol.
I am an electrical engineer. Can I be invited to some eCar races pits to learn common sense too?
