Robin Miller is reporting that the IRL is considering using only two men
to change four tires on each pit stop

One benefit is fewer men over the pit wall. The second is that fueling should
easily be completed before the tire change is complete.
The change should allow the fueler to clear out cleanly before the car is
released back into action.
The PaddockTalk Perspective:
One question, we'd have is whether a pit stop would require a tire change. If
the tires are durable enough, a team may decide to pass on a tire change, and
double stint the tires.
