Missing driver

Not sure if this is a bug or simply how the game works.

I sold a driver (instant sell, not auction) but decided I want him back. When I use the search function to find him again he's nowhere to be seen. 

Is he gone forever?

He is probably bought by somebody else, and when you search him you maybe typed his name incorrectly, I'm sorry, Haven't you shortlisted him?

Unless you can find him by name using the search function, I'm afraid he's gone unless you are lucky to find him again. He still exists, but unless you've shortlisted him, there is no easy way of finding him.

Thanks for the replies. I know I should really have shortlisted! Seems like the search function will only show a maximum number of drivers and if they're outside of that window they cant be found? Categorised search would be a nice feature for the future.
