After 1 and a half year with the Toro Rosso team, Sebastien Bourdais has been dropped by the team.
It’s not suprising, since both Sebastien Buemi and formar team mate, Sebastian Vettel have both out-performed Sebastien Bourdais. Shame realy as Bourdais record from Champ Car did look very good.
There is a rumour going around the FF1GP office that Sebastien Bourdais was dropped because there was too many Sebastien’s in F1, but no-one can comfirm these rumours!
Bourdais is replaced by Jaime Alguersuari, a Spanish driver who is the British Formula 3 International Series champion, and is now the youngest F1 driver.
So how does this effect Fantasy Formula 1 Grand Prix?
For those who have the Toro Rosso team, you will score points as normal.
For those who have Sebastien Bourda, I’m afraid you don’t get any more points for him, and you can’t trade him for a replacement driver either. (Sorry this is more down to a technical limitation of FF1GP)
For those who want to create a new team with Jaime Alguersuar, you can. He is available for your FF1GP team for only 3 million.
