The Ferrari F1 team fired their pit crew yesterday.
The announcement followed Ferrari's decision last
month to take advantage of the New Zealand
government's "work for the dole scheme" and to hire
unemployed Maori youths.The decision to hire them was
bought on by a recent television documentary on how
Maori youths were able to remove a set of car wheels
in less than 6 seconds without proper equipment,
whereas Ferrari's pit crew can only do it in 8 seconds
with the aid of millions of dollars 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, Ferrari would have a decided advantage over
every other F1 team.
However Ferrari got more than they bargained for on
Sunday when, during the first pit stop the Maori crew
changed all 4 tyres in under 6 seconds, but within 12
seconds they had re-sprayed, re-badged and sold the
car over to the McLaren team for ten dozen Lion Red,
an HQ Holden and a quick look at David Coulthard's
girlfriend in the shower.
