It will probably something clever with all driver weights being taking into consideration?

Otherwise you just put your heaviest driver in at the end and have it run light with your lighter drivers?
Actually yeah, Irie makes a great point - the bottle changes with the driver, even though the drivers drink. So every stint you add, for example, 1kg of weight via liquid to the car. That gets transferred to the driver, and then you replace the bottle with another 1kg one. They swap bottles without drivers sometimes. So if you make 7 pit stops, you can add 7kg to the weight overall. By drinking it, the driver frees up the spot for another 1kg to go in.
