Yeah, in total there is a 20-25 seconds loss or so depending on circuit, so 2 secs aren’t too many percents of that but with the same tire strategy chances are your opponent has to pit as often too, so... (and this is venturing into the F1 strategy world with undercuts etc) And with these things evened out, seconds can matter although it’s usually no disaster even with a 4-5 secs stop unless you’re in a tight spot or with little of the race left. Races can quickly start to get ruined for each second after this though.
