Ferrari's F1 Team has fired its entire pit crew. The announcement follows Ferrari's decision to take advantage of India's high unemployment rate, and hire unemployed Indian youths from Dharavi, Mumbai. The decision to hire them was brought on by a recent documentary on how they were able to remove a set of wheels from a car parked in the street in less than 6 seconds without proper equipment. Ferrari's erstwhile crew took more than 8 seconds with the right equipment.
This was thought to be an excellent yet bold move by Ferrari management, and, as most races are won & lost in the pits, Ferrari would have an advantage over every other team.
However, Ferrari's expectations were exceeded, as during the crew's first practice session; not only were 'da boyz' from Bombay able to change the tyres in under 6 seconds, but within 12 seconds had resprayed the car, filed off the chassis number and sold the vehicle over to the McLaren Team!!
