skyblue should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
She doesn't have any more money, that's all there is to it. If she wants to race again she has to get more sponsorship.

To get more sponsorship you have to be in something that companies recognise, and FR or F3 simply isn't it. You can win a trip to the pitlane of a GP in any local paper so sponsors want a path to F1 or nothing.

There is no commercial life outside F1, so SS is forced to say she's going to GP2 and then F1 because that's what sponsors will pay for.

In fact she would probably really really like a comfortable well-funded year(s) with a really good team in Formula National Anything until she's learned a LOT more.

She (and others with no money) do not have that choice, or luxury. Talk it up or race no more.
