Just found this on the Lotuslife board, so i nicked it to post it here…made me laugh [image]http://www.exiges.com/ubb/NonCGI/images/icons/grin.gif[/image]Modena, Italy.>>The Ferrari F1 Team fired their entire Pit-Crew yesterday. The>announcement was followed by Ferrari’s decision to take advantage of the>English Government’s “Work for the Dole” Scheme and hire unemployed>youths from Basildon. The decision to hire them was brought on by a>recent documentary on how unemployed youths in Basildon were able to>remove a set of car wheels in less than six seconds without proper>equipment, whereas Ferrari’s existing crew can only do it in eight>seconds. This was thought to be an excellent yet bold move by Ferrari>Management, as most races are won & lost in the pits, Ferrari would have>an advantage over every team.>>However Ferrari expectations were easily exceeded, as during the first>practice session; not only were “de Essex Boys” able to change the tyres>in under six seconds but within twelve seconds they had resprayed,>rebadged and sold the vehicle over to the McLaren Team for four dozen>Stella’s and a gram of Charlie
