Ferrari sack entire pit crew ?!?
The Ferrari formula 1 team fired their entire pit crew yesterday.The announcement followed Ferrari's decision to take advantage of the British Governments "Work for the Dole" scheme and employ Liverpudlianchaps.
The decision to hire them was brought on by a recent documentary on
how unemployed youths from Toxteth were able to remove a set of wheels in less than 6 seconds, without the proper equipment, whereas Ferrari's existing pit crew could only do it in 8 seconds with millions of pounds worth of high-tech equipment.
It was thought to be an excellent and bold move by the Ferrari management, as most races can be won and lost in the pits. Ferrari would now have an
advantage over every team.
However, Ferrari got more than they bargained for.At the crew's first practice session, not only was the scouse 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 the Mclaren team for 8 cases of Stella, a bag of skunk weed and some photos of Coulthard's bird in the shower.

If you read the bible:
"Genesis 1
1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth and a joke about Scousers and the Ferrari F1 Team. 2 The earth was without form and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep; and the Spirit of God was moving over the face of the waters of the lake. 3 And God said, "Let there be a Scooby in this lake"; and there was a Scooby In A Lake. 4 And God saw that the SIAL was good; and God separated the SIAL from the new stuff. 5 God called the SIAL "Muppetry", and the new stuff he called "Non Scooby Related"."
