I'd fire both team leaders.

Both have made crazy decisions over splitting the team.

Micheal knows he has f.ck all knowledge about the car, but f.cked off by
himself.

I can barely watch that programme. I'm a project guy and some of the
stupid decisions they make are incredible.

Bloody right we would.
Why didn't they think of getting two blokes together and sell them the
Zonda half a day each, as a road trip package.
