iPhones News Mark Webber has no doubts Formula One's rapid-fire pit stops remain an "impressive" part of the sport and have not become too quick for their own good.
Webber was involved in a serious incident in the pit lane in last month's German Grand Prix when a wheel worked loose from his Red Bull as he pulled away from a pit stop, striking and injuring a cameraman.
A suggestion to regulate pit stop times, given the average is now two to three seconds, was unanimously rejected by team managers during a meeting at the most recent F1 race in Hungary.
Dismissing the suggestion pit stops have become too fast, Webber said: "It's a sensational talking point.
"A lot of people talk about it being a great advert for the sport when a car is turned around that quickly.
"It's just another part of our operation as an industry to show how performance-orientated we are.
"Although that stuff doesn't apply to your road cars and your local Kwik Fit, it's a message to show how we focus on finding what time we can.
"The difference between a two-second stop and a three-second stop is still impressive.
"When people are watching in the Red Bull garage - or any garage for that matter - if you see a Formula One car arrive and disappear, it's impressive."
Motor sport's world governing body the FIA has implemented a range of measures to minimise the risk of further incidents in the future.
Primarily, pit-lane speed limits have been reduced from 100 kilometres per hour to 80kmh, with the exception of Monaco, Singapore and Melbourne which will operate at 60kmh.
Restrictions have also been placed on photographers and camera crews operating in the pit lane during practice, qualifying and the race.
For the teams, a 10-place grid penalty is to be imposed should a car be released with a loose wheel.
Webber concedes the sport "dodged a bullet" at the Nurburgring, and while the new restrictions and penalty seem an over-the-top reaction, he can appreciate the changes made.
"That's how it is these days," added Webber.
"Generally when you have an isolated incident then some big decisions are made, and that happens in all walks of life, in society and in professional sport.
"We've had an incident where something nasty happened, and could have been a lot worse.
"The sledgehammer effect is a big one on what happens in the pit lane, but that will just become the norm again. We'll accept it.
"In two years it will be the norm - the pit lane is always live and dangerous and mistakes can happen.
"I've had some close shaves over the years in the pit lane with other personnel guys, but always been okay.
"In winter testing, for example, where a guy was daydreaming, he had his headset on. It can happen.
"Look, motor sport is dangerous, we know that, but there still needs to be competition in the pit lane.
"I'm sure they'll find a way, just maybe a bit safer with less errors."
