Driver did not get a ride.

I picked my team quite early on and since then have been away and not able to find out what was happening. I now find that my No2 driver Gary Paffit has not got a drive, is there any way I can replace him with a similarly rated/priced driver?

Gary Paffit has been a test driver with McLaren for ages. There was never any speculation that he might get a race seat with any team for 2011.

Sorry :(

He is a test and reserve driver for Force India.

If as you say in your reply, "There was never any speculation that he might get a race seat with any team for 2011." why was he then in the list of drivers offered for selection.. As someone who is not a close follower of the detail of F1, I was, and probably a lot of others, reliant on you giving us the correct information. So I don't think 'sorry' is really good enough.

When you created your team, did you read the information at the top of the page? It read:

"Create your own team. Once created, you can enter your team into a league. Note: All drivers priced £1million or less are test/reserve drivers and are likely not to take part in many races."
