Ferrari Pit Crew

The Ferrari Formula 1 Team fired their entire pit crew yesterday. The announcement followed Ferrari’s decision to take advantage of the UK Government’s Youth Employment scheme and employ people from Glasgow.

The decision to hire them was brought on by a recent documentary
on how unemployed youths from the Glasgow 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.

Tony Blair went on record as saying this was a bold move by the
Ferrari management, which demonstrated the international recognition of
the UK under New Labour. As most races are won and lost in the pits,
Ferrari now have an advantage over every other team.

However, Ferrari may have got more than they bargained for….At
the crew’s first practice session, the Glasgow pit crew successfully
changed the tyres 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 bottle of buckie and some photos of
Coulthard’s bird in the shower. :lol: :lol:
