    Ferrari pit crew sacked !

    The Ferrari Formula 1 Team fired their entire pit crew today. The
    announcement followed Ferrari's decision to take advantage of the UK
    Government's Youth Opportunity scheme and employ people from Liverpool.

    The decision to hire them was brought on by a recent documentary, on how
    unemployed youths from the Liverpool area were able to remove a set of
    wheels in less than 6 seconds without proper equipment, whereas Ferrari's
    existing crew can only do it in 8 seconds with millions of euros worth of
    high tech equipment. As most races are won and lost in the pits, Ferrari now
    have an advantage over every team.

    However, Ferrari may have got more than they bargained for..... At the
    crew's first practice session, the Liverpool pit crew successfully changed
    the wheels in under 6 seconds, and then within 12 seconds they had
    re-sprayed, re-badged, and sold the vehicle to the McLaren team for 8
    bottles of Stella, a kilogram of speed and some photos of Coulthard's
    bird in the shower
