How very apt for a team of that name to be leading after this week-end :)

As team owner I´m very happy today. We are used to finish at the bottom but todays result is as a win for us!!
“Great race win for Ferrari powered Mercedes”
The new Mercedes-Ferrari combination is proving quite potent this season, with comfortable win during Malaysian GP. The engine crossed the line first, with chassis following closely behind.
“It’s a bizarre situation” says team boss. “One of our mechanics mistakenly put the engine in the front instead in the back. It slightly affected handling of the car and tire wear. It made no difference for the points scored [the new scoring system introduced this season allows both chassis and engine to score points] but it might have confused some of our casual fans.
We’re very pleased with winning this race. Unfortunately our drivers couldn’t catch up with the car and it cost us a significant number of point.”
Underdog Jens GP Racing press release
Team principal Jens claims that Malaysian Grand Prix basically means their season is down the drain. "With the package we have chosen, basically we gambled it all in Mercedes basket, which means we banked on them winning all races this year. In fact it was the only option. If Mercedes showed any weakness, we knew our season would be down the drain. As it is, they have lost and we have lost. We have no alternative strength apart from Mercedes!"
"But that's why we are underdogs. It is all or nothing! Maybe if Mercedes puts in a string of 5 consecutive race wins again, we could bounce back into top 10 again. But it will be hard to compete against packages, who have got Mercedes, Ferrari, and Räikkönen included in a single team."
I blame Honda. They are the treason we have finished last... again. Yes we were better this time than in Melbourne, and if we keep closing the gap by 1.5 seconds per race we will be on pole by the start of the European season.
Flying Yorkie Zakspeed Express: Team Statement
We regret to inform investors that we misread some key clauses in our suppliers contracts and this has led to poor results.
Specifically we read a document as:
McLaren Technology Centre, Working, Sunday; when we should have read it as McLaren Technology Centre, Woking, Surrey.
Clearly this is not the case as McLaren chassis do not work on Sunday or on any other day of the week.
