SCOUSERS JOIN FERRARI
"The Ferrari F1 team fired their entire pit crew yesterday."
This announcement followed Ferrari's decision to take advantage of the British government's 'Work for your Dole' scheme and employ some Liverpudlian youngsters.
The decision to hire them was brought about by a recent documentary on how unemployed youths from Toxteth were able to remove a set of 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 equipment.
It was thought to be an excellent, bold move by the Ferrari management team as most races are won and lost in the pits, giving Ferrari an advantage over every other 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 all four wheels in under 6 seconds but, within 12 seconds, they had re-sprayed, re-badged and sold the car to the Mclaren team for 8 cases of Stella, a bag of weed and some photos of Lewis Hamilton's bird in the shower.

The British GP- well that was a brilliant one for me! Vettel got his just desserts and Alonso just cannot stop throwing his toys out of the pram!! Fantastic result and so nice to see Rosberg on the podium - just a shame Button could not get there.
So Flash - how was it for you? I bet the atmosphere was electric.....

Breathtaking Dottie, all exactly as you say, plus glorious sunshine all weekend and secret parking place that meant we were in and out of the circuit and back to the hotel with no delays at all - even after the race it only took an hour to get from our seats back to the hotel - how good is that!!
Interestingly when we were in Valencia (and monaco previously) there were a couple of teams you could tell were driving absolute dogs (poor Jenson trying to get that Honda round) , but despite there being three distict divisions none of the teams were driving real dogs which is encouraging for the future.
We were at Copse (180mph at the end of the main straight) most guys were fast and not smooth looking, but three were clearly faster and not so smooth - Hamilton, Alonso and Schumi - coincidentally probably the three best drivers in the world.
I'd never fancied Silverstone (hated it when I raced there) but I'd go back anytime - spotless in all areas (including the toilets) and teams of people cleaning and picking up litter all of the time. Plenty of facilities so no real queues (not even for the ladies - apparently) Just very very well organised, all that AND the Red Arrows - what more could you want!!

Absolute disgrace today, Ferrari and that cheating Cataln guy should hang their heads in shame. Nearly went to the German GP this year, so glad I didn't waste a couple of grand to see a farce.
And what about the people who bet in Massa? how must they feel. All on the aniversary of his big accident - how could they take a victory away from him.
Sad day for the 'sport'

I couldn't agree more and they should have taken all today's points off both 1st and 2nd to send out a clear message to all teams.

I pressed the red button Dottie, but the fire alarm went off. Clearly it doesn't work at the office!!
