"We told him to stay out." said Wolff .
To which he replied "not good" , referring to his tires being old and cold .
So , yeah , you could say he was asking to pit .
They made the decision based on the FACT that the driver wanted to pit , and that there was time to do it if the stop had gone as planned .
As it happened , Lewis was partly to blame there as well , as he didn't hit his marks right on , but went slightly deep , causing a small time loss on it's own .
Look , the decision to stop looks a whole lot dumber from here in the future .
They thought they still had time to do it and they had a very nervous driver . It's really as simple as that .
The guys behind both spoke of how nervous they were about the restart as well , on icy tires that were well worn and would not be easy to heat up as a result .
Sure , it was a team decision , but , as he stated , he is part of that team .
