Splash and dash

Splash and dash

Der Begriff Splash and Dash (auch Splash 'n' Dash oder Splash & Dash) hat seinen Ursprung im amerikanischen Rennsport, findet aber in letzter Zeit auch in der Formel 1 und anderen Motorsportarten Verwendung.

Splash and Dash ist die Bezeichnung für einen sehr kurzen Boxenstopp. Dabei geht es in der Regel nur darum, das Fahrzeug mit einigen Litern zu betanken. Es findet kein Reifenwechsel statt.

Meist ist ein Splash and Dash dann notwendig, wenn das Fahrzeug zu wenig Kraftstoff besitzt, um bis zum Ende eines Rennens durchfahren zu können. Daher erfolgt ein Splash and Dash meist in den letzten Runden eines Rennens.[1]
