Formula 1 1982 - Brabham Invent Refuelling
BackIn 1982, the Brabham team, led by Bernie Ecclestone, worked out that the time gained by starting a race with tanks half-full outweighed the cost of stopping halfway to refill. Thus was born the modern pit-stop. They tried it in four races - in the first three, neither of their cars made it far enough to stop, due to reliability and backmarkers (Piquet's response to being taken off while lapping Salazar is my earliest F1 memory). Although the strategy yielded no points, it proved itself in theory, and by the next season pit stops were the norm.
