Ferrari sack their whole pit crew...

[Driveby]

"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 your Dole' scheme and employ some Geordie
 youngsters.

 The decision to hire them was brought about by a recent documentary on
 how unemployed youths from Wallsend were able to remove a set of wheels
 in less than 6 seconds without proper equipment, whereas 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
 practice session, not only was the geordie 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 photos of Lewis Hamilton's bird in the
 shower.
