Hey N. Jones.
Though I can appreciate that you are keeping Taz, Mutley, and Bagwan in complete suspense.... if you are getting burned out on doing this and need a break let us know. I'm sure we will figure something out to help take up slack or take over for a while if you need the time. Heck, let me do it for just a few races and they will all be begging you to come back and take over, even if you take your time and always post results late.
And I do feel your pain. I keep some spreadsheets for an online shooting match we do on another forum, and it can suck the life out of you when your results are lower in the pack. We promoted it enough to get some real aces to join, and now most of the rest of us hope to even be noticed.
And though we do like to talk trash when we have good years, poke each other in the ribs about kids beating parents, Bagwan being humiliated by Trophy Wife, etc... the single most important person in this forum GP for years has been you. And it's been appreciated for all those years.

Dick Dastardly ‘Double Drat’ Formula 1 Team Press Release.
SWIMOLA GRAND PRIX 2023.
Dick Dastardly: “As one of the FGP Team Managers, Bagwan from the Bagbomber squad, has indicated;
“Reports are that all the teams are fitting snorkels on all the drivers helmets , as the Imola track is flooded…”
Here at Dick Dastardly ‘Double Drat’ Formula 1 Team , we are having a sing song;
“In the town where I was born
Lived a man who sailed to sea
And he told us of his life
In the land of submarines
So we sailed on to the sun
Till we found the sea of green
And we lived beneath the waves
In our yellow submarine
We all live in a yellow submarine
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
We all live in a yellow submarine
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
And our friends are all aboard
Many more of them live next door
And the band begins to play
We all live in a yellow submarine
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
We all live in a yellow submarine
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine”

Fernando Alonso speaks out after Aston Martin call ruins chance to beat Max Verstappen
Fernando Alonso finished behind Max Verstappen after a chaotic Monaco Grand Prix.
16:11, Sun, May 28, 2023
By Luke Chillingsworth
Daily and Sunday Express
Fernando Alonso has spoken out about his difficulties of keeping the car on the track after Aston Martin’s decision ruined his chance to beat Max Verstappen. The team opted to fit dry tyres instead of intermediates or full wets at a crucial stage which could have changed the outcome of the race.
Alonso stopped first, Aston Martin bizarrely opting for dry tyres as others took for the intermediates. According to Sky Sports F1, Alonso questioned the decision over team radio but his team were admanent the dry compounds were the right call.
A switch to wet tyres would have given Alonso a chance to close on Verstappen who was struggling around as the conditions quickly worsened. Verstappen also had a big moment at Portier on his lap into the pits, losing control of the rear end and tapping the barrier on the outside.

With RB including Max struggling at Monza, it's exactly what Lando needs to have any real chance of bagging a WDC this year. But it will take solid and consistent driving to give him these...
