a wee funny, for ye

Post by :FI:Bluebell » Sat Mar 04, 2006 12:57 am

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 Opportunity Scheme and employ people from Liverpool.
The decision to hire them followed a recent documentary on how
unemployed youths from the Liverpool 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.
Prime Minister 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 thought they had the advantage over every team. However, Ferrari
got more than they bargained for.
At the first practice session, the Liverpool pit crew successfully
changed the tyres in less than 6 seconds, but within 12 seconds they had
re-sprayed, re-badged, and sold the vehicle to the McLaren team for 8
bottles of Stella, a kilo of speed and some photos of Coulthard's bird
in the shower.

Good one Ard.
Originality and strangeness are good,
blind conformity and stupidity are unforgivable.
