Ferrari F1 sack entire pit crew...

Post by wazza » Thu Jun 05, 2003 4:26 pm

The announcement followed Ferrari's Decision to take advantage of the British Government's Work For the Dole Scheme and hire unemployed Northern youths from Liverpool.

The decision to hire them was brought on by a recent documentary on how unemployed Scousers were able to remove a set of car 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 gear.

This was thought to be an excellent yet bold move by Ferrari Management, as most races are won and lost in the pits, and Ferrari would have an advantage over every team.

However Ferrari got more than they bargained for as, during the Scouse Crew's first practice session, not only were the Scouse pit crew able to change the tyres in under 6 seconds but within 12 seconds they had resprayed, rebadged, and had sold the vehicle over to the McLaren Team for four dozen cans of Special Brew, a gram of Coke and a quick shuffty at Coulthard's bird in the shower.

Nice one [img]images/graemlins/roflmao.gif[/img]

Here's my effort (not car related, sorry)

A man is sitting reading his newspaper when his wife sneaks up behind him and whacks him on the head with a frying pan.

"What was that for?" He asks

"That was for the piece of paper in your trouser pocket with the name of Mary Ellen written on it" she replies.

"Don't be silly " he says "Two weeks ago when I went to the races Mary Ellen was the name of one of the horses I bet on".

She seems satisfied at this and apologizes.

Three days later he's again sitting in his chair reading when she nails him with an even bigger frying pan, knocking him out cold.

When he comes around he asks "What was that for?"

His wife said, "Your fuckin' horse phoned"
