Default New pit crew for Ferrari F1 Team!

The Ferrari Formula 1 Team fired their entire pit crew yesterday. The
announcement followed Ferrari's decision to take advantage of the
British government "WORK FOR THE DOLE" scheme and employ the Welsh.

The decision to hire them was brought on by a recent documentary on how
unemployed youths from Swansea were able to remove a set of wheels in
less than 6 seconds without the proper equipment, whereas Ferrari's
existing crew can only do it in 8 seconds with millions of pounds of
high tech gear. This was thought to be an excellent,
yet bold move by Ferrari management. As most races are won and lost in
the pits, Ferrari would have an advantage over every team.

However.... Ferrari got more than they bargained for at the crew's
firstpractice session, not only were the Welsh Pit Crew able to change
the tyres in under 6 seconds but within 12 seconds they had re-sprayed,
re-badged and sold the vehicle over to Maclaren team for 8 bottles of
Stella, a kilo of speed and some photos of Coulthards missus in the
Shower.
