Pit Stops
Pit stop data is available from the 2012 season onwards. Pit stop queries require a season and a round to be specified. To request all the pit stop data for a race use the following URL with the required year and round number:
http://ergast.com/api/f1/2011/5/pitstops
If the pit stop data for the specified race is not yet available the RaceTable element will be empty. To request the information for a specific stop add the stop number:

Pit stop queries can also include any of the following criteria:
/drivers/<driverId>
