    The Formula 1 community was shocked today to learn that one of its newest drivers, LionelRichTea, had resigned from Red Bull. In a press conference following his early exit from todays Monaco Grand Prix, he stated that “[he] appreciate the opportunity, but I don’t think I’m ready for these machines just yet” and that “I will concentrate on my job as test driver at Force India (career mode) and continue with my hobby of Rally (Dirt3)”. When asked about a possible return to F1 he simply said “maybe, but not until I have more experience in open wheel racing. I wish the team and all of the other drivers a fantastic season”.

    Later start is fine by me. I will however be missing Istanbul due to a planned holiday so I’ll have to drop those points. Shame really as I scored only 4 this evening, could have done with dropping those. Wishful thinking I guess.

    I was dogged with bad fortune from the start. Did too many aggressive laps on my options meaning they were screwed from the start. Overestimated how long I could push with them and amended my strategy accordingly, but based it on my knowledge of 20% races. Spun out twice in the same lap once they had dropped off putting me a whole minute behind the car in front. Shame really because I was having a great defensive battle with @maddogmolloy about 8 laps in after a glorious DRS overtake down the pit straight. Then I made the same mistake again with the Primes and spun in lap 21 when the leaders were already bringing it home. My race engineer (me) threw in the towel. Sorry about the long post, i’ll stay and chat next week when I have my headset. Great race guys.

    My Mic will be sorted for next week guys. Had to retire due to some terrible tyre strategy and wild inexperience. Did not put me off at all. In a split second my tyres went from sticky to slippy and I could not maintain race pace at all.

    Just so everybody knows, my headset is broken so I will be quiet this evening. Not being rude.

    @maddogmolloy Thanks. If @vettels confirms in time, relocate me to Red Bull for the sake of the Constructors Championship. If not then leave me at Toro Rosso. What will the AI difficulty. be set to?

    @maddogmolloy rather. Still getting the hang of using these forums.

    @Kyle … as above. Forgot who the admin was for a second. Plus I may have a friend interested in being my team mate.

    @kvothe I’ll take a seat in a Toro Rosso if that’s ok. Monday night is fine for me. Send me a friend request on live, once again I’m LionelRichTea.

    Q1 – A: I’m pretty excited. I havnt raced in a WDC online before and I’m still honing my skills so I think I would enjoy the format, even as a back marker for the experience. Everyone has to start somewhere I suppose.

    Q2 – A: I expect to take some points but bot many but I promise to be a good sport and to treat other racers with respect.

    Q3 – A: A podium would be great but I reckon my opposition might be a tad more experienced than myself. We shall see what happens.

    Q4 – A: I’m hoping for a drive with Toro Rosso to kickstart my career. I grew up rooting for McLaren so I aspire to warm the seat of one in the future.

    Q5 – A: So far no decision has been made about who I’ll be paired with.

    Q6 – A: High speed circuits like Canada and Monza are my favourites but truthfully, I enjoy the challenges offered by all of the calendar.
