Shock as the Ferrari Formula 1 team fired their entire pit crew!
The announcement followed Ferrari's decision to take advantage of the UK
Government's Youth Opportunity Scheme and employ people from the Falls
and the Shankill.
The decision to hire them followed a recent documentary on how
unemployed youths from the Falls and Shankill areas of Belfast 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 Gordon Brown 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 Falls and Shankill 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
Carlsberg Special, 50 ecstasy tablets and some photos of Lewis
Hamilton's bird in the shower.
