      It has racked up 2.1million views but many fans have been left with a sour taste in their mouth as they picked out a number of faults with the character.

      What did Juri Vips say?
      After being shot on Call of Duty, Juri Vips was alleged to have said: “Oh my God, f*** this n*****.”
      In another incident on the same stream, Vips was handed a pink Red Bull hat which he refused to put on.
      When asked why he wouldn’t wear it, he was heard saying: “Because it’s gay.”
      Juri Vips has since apologised, saying: “I wish to unreservedly apologise for the offensive language used during a live gaming stream earlier today.
      “This language is entirely unacceptable and does not portray the values and principles that I hold.
      “I deeply regret my actions and this is not the example I wish to set. I will cooperate with the investigation fully.”
      What have Red Bull said?
      A Red Bull statement read: “Red Bull Racing has suspended junior driver Juri Vips from all team duties with immediate effect, pending a full investigation into the incident.
      “As an organisation, we condemn abuse of any kind and have a zero-tolerance policy to racist language and behaviours within our organisation.”

      While Vips has been suspended from the Red Bull junior team, the HiTech Grand Prix team he races for in F2 has yet to communicate a decision on whether he will be allowed to race at the upcoming British Grand Prix.
      However, HiTech owner Oliver Oakes did say: “I was shocked and appalled to hear about this incident.
      “The comments made by Juri are offensive and completely not reflective of Hitech’s inclusive values.
      “Like everyone else, I found out about this an hour ago – the video and Redbull’s suspension with an investigation to follow.” More

      Jack Grealish volleys a GRENADE in new Call of Duty advert leaving fans in stitches

      by

      JACK GREALISH has left football fans in fits of laughter after volleying a GRENADE in the new Call of Duty advert.The Aston Villa star can be seen playing the popular video game on his sofa, before the ad then enters a TV screen with a virtual Grealish.
      Grealish started off playing the game in the advert
      The ad then turns into the TV and a virtual Grealish controlling a grenade
      And he then proceeds to acrobatically volley the grenade away
      And as the explosive is lobbed in front of him, he proceeds to scissor kick it away.
      The Call of Duty clip was of great entertainment to a number of football fans across social media.
      One said: “That’s the goal he’s gonna score for England in the World Cup final against France after being subbed on at the 80th minute to win the game.”
      And another added: “Oh please don’t tell me Jack is out there Stat padding grenades. Thought the dude was out injured.”
      A third said: “Hey @TorontoLions @TorontoAVFC now you know how @JackGrealish got his injury.”
      To which a user replied: “Well, one thing we can guarantee is that all he can do right now is play COD haha.”
      Grealish, 25, is currently sidelined with a shin injury and has not played for Villa since the middle of February.
      During his time in the stands, Dean Smith’s men have managed just two wins from nine Premier League games.

      The absence of their star man has seen them drop from eighth to 11th in the table.
      Grealish also missed England’s three World Cup qualifiers last month, denting his hopes of securing a place in Gareth Southgate’s Euro 2020 squad in the summer.
      The Villa man is competing with a number of attacking players including the likes of Mason Mount, Phil Foden, Jesse Lingard and James Maddison.
