Apologies to Scousers everywhere but I didn't give you the reputation O-Ha
The Ferrari F1 team fired their entire pit crew yesterday. This
announcement followed Ferrari's decision to take advantage of the
British government's 'Work for the Dole Scheme' and employ some
Liverpudlian youngsters.
The decision to hire them was brought about by a recent documentary
on how unemployed youths from Kirkby were able to remove a set of wheels in less than 6 seconds without proper equipment, where as Ferrari's existing crew could only do it in 8 seconds with millions of pounds worth of high tech equipment.
It was thought to be an excellent, bold move by the Ferrari
Management team as most races are won and lost in the pits, giving Ferrari an advantage over every other team.
However, Ferrari got more than they bargained for! At the crew's
First practise session, not only was the scouse pit crew able to change all four wheels in under 6 seconds, but within 12 seconds they had
re-sprayed ,re-badged and sold the car to the Mclaren team for 8
cases of Stella, a bag of weed and some photo's of Coulthard's bird in the shower.
