    In a press conference yesterday, Ross Braun confirmed that
    > Ferrari had fired their entire pit crew. The announcement was followed by
    > Ferrari's decision to take advantage of the Irish Governments "Back To
    > Work Scheme" and hired unemployedyouths from Moyross and Southill.
    >
    > The decision to hire them was brought on by a documentary on how
    > unemployed youths from Limerick 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 all the mod con tools.
    > This was thought to be an excellent yet bold move by Ferrari
    > management, as most races are won and lost in the pits, they would have an
    > advantage over every team.
    >
    > However Ferrari's expectations were easily exceeded, as during
    > the first practice session with the new Limerick crew, not only did they
    > change the tyres in under six seconds but within twenty seconds they had
    > the car resprayed, rebadged and sold to the McLaren Team for four dozen
    > cans of Dutch Gold.
