replaced

Don't you hate it when you get replaced. I'm sure you all know what I'm talking about here.
Like you get pushed out. Thrown out some window somehow. Then someone just waltzes in takes over. Much like an endurance motor sport (lame guy thing I know).

Drivers drive the car, for laps on end. Eventually though, as soon as you get in the rhythm and start feeling in control. The team manager radios in and sez, "nah sorry mate, come in to the pits, we are gonna change driver". So you drive in thinking, "I did my best", "yeah that's cool I can share the car around", "let him take over for a while I was getting tired anyway".
So you get out and the driver change occurs. Being in a race it has to happen quickly. You jump out and he jumps in, with assistance of course. It's all over within a few seconds.

You go rest while the other guy takes the car around. Then all of a sudden he starts driving really well, moving up the order until eventually he is leading the race. He's driving the car really well, better than you were. At this point you feel a little disappointed, like, "Oh well I tried".
Except this new driver had only just joined on to the race team. You were the head guy for so long, you drove the car all this way. Now some new guy comes along and drives amazingly.

The team manager then decides to let the new guy keep driving and he wins the race. You get annoyed and get angry. You can't blame anyone really but yourself. End of the day he was the better driver. Soon you become old news and the team sacks you. You retire and no one realises. The new guy is now the star driver. Before you know it you've been replaced.

You can't do anything about it. But you were the one who brought the race team up, you were the one who drove the car and made a name for yourself. Then somehow, you just get pushed away, thrown out like an old newspaper. You're old news. You got sacked.

Now try to relate this to life and see if you understand.
