This wouldn't be allowed as it would create a team that already exits.

Any ETA on results from Miami? My team's achilles has been poor performance by Alpine and they managed to do decently well this past weekend.

Just seen this question, busy week in the real world. I’ll update tonight whilst avoiding a certain European, if not global “cultural event”, that I have absolutely no interest in.

Approved in time for the Hungaroring event.

With Ricciardo announced as replacing DeVries in the Alpha Tauri for the remainder of the season. Ricciardo now becomes available as a substitute Driver

Ricciardo will be priced the same as deVries was, at 18,0000

As I was working leading up to and then trackside at Knockhill for the TCR-UK weekend I wasn't able to announce this ahead of the Hungarian event.

So if you want to make Ricciardo a member of your fantasy team, be sure to post your substitution in this thread before the start of FP1 of the next event which is Belgium this weekend.

For reference only one fantasy selection had deVries and they will automatically get Ricciardo points for the remainder of the season unless they wish to make a change.

Mr & Mrs Born Racer would like to get Ricciardo in there and kick out Ken Hülkenberg (sorry, Hülkenberg - you're a good driver). It'll probably still cost us, as we'll have to pay him off and pay Daniel, but anyway.

Mr & Mrs Born Racer
Russell (35,000)
Substitution: Ricciardo (in) (18,000)
McLaren (18,000)
Renault (18,000)

Total: 89,000

Declined as this would exceed the financial cap by 5k

PM sent to the team principal.

Approved and in place for the Event at Qatar
This is the teams second driver change and so costs 20 points. This will be incorporated into the overall standings when update after the Qatar event.
