Subject: Ferrari Fired their pit crew

Ferrari fired their pit crew last week.

The announcement followed Ferrari's decision last
month to take advantage of the New Zealand
government's "work for the dole scheme" and to hire
unemployed Maori youths.

> The decision to hire them was bought on by a recent
television documentary on how Maori youths were
able to remove a set of car wheels in less than 6
seconds without proper equipment,where as Ferrari's
pit crew can only do it in 8 seconds with the aid
of millions of dollars of high tech gear. As most
races are won and lost in the pits, Ferrari were
confident they would have a decided advantage over
every other F1 team.

However Ferrari got more than they bargained for on
Sunday when, during the first pit stop the Maori
crew changed all 4 tyres in under 6 seconds, but
within 12 seconds they had re-sprayed, re-badged
and sold the car over to the McLaren team for ten
cases of Lion Red beer, an HQ Holden and a quick
look at Lewis Hamilton's girlfriend in the shower.

Wouldn't they get half way through the tyre change, then run off with the tyres while leaving the car on bricks?

They would take the tyre off faster than any other pit crew though. ^_^
