Grand Prix Rejects

Good chance for Manor to gain points this Grand Prix, I'm rooting for them.

Nice articles! I've always wanted an article about Super Aguri but the old site never made one, and I really love the punny titles.

1. Nico Rosberg - For driving like an idiot and pushing the much faster Hamilton onto the grass, he was also using the wrong setting. 2. Fire Marshal - Making a complete fool out of themselves when trying to use a fire extinguisher. This forum is so anti-Hamilton its disgusting, lets just blame ever...

I was looking up on team history and found out that Benetton Formula wasn't just born from the Toleman Motorsport team but also from the small Spirit Racing team as well, the Benetton family purchased both teams and combined them to make Benetton Formula in 1986, I'm not 100% sure if they did purch...

I think Olivier Panis winning the 1996 Monaco Grand Prix in the poor Ligier-Mugen-Honda was brilliant, Jules Bianchi scoring points at the 2014 Monaco Grand Prix in his Marussia-Ferrari and Pastor Maldonado winning the 2012 Spanish Grand Prix for Williams-Renault.

I'm practically annoyed with qualifying at this present time it seems like their isn't any point watching these days, It's easy to predict that a Mercedes driver will get pole, unless one of the Mercedes drivers have a fault or hiccup it seems really unlikely that another driver of another team wil...

No, I support bringing F1 to new countries to expand its fanbase. That has nothing to do with either of those things. The actual marketing is a whole different story though... Seeing Bernie bring F1 to Azerbaijan and not have races in France or Argentina grinds my gears, both Korea and India were c...

I do feel Sauber's time in Formula One is coming to a close.

As Eddie Jordan once said "Formula One sadly doesn't have room for small privateers anymore"

What better way do you know of bringing F1 to new markets?

Please don't tell me you support Bernie and his fetish for fanless Tilkedrom's

Marussia are clearly desperate for money, its not like they don't know the current situation that Manor are in money wise they did used to own part of the team after all.

F1 needs more European races and less in countries who don't know s**t about it.

I know this seems pointless but shouldn't the title of this thread be changed now the team has dropped "Marussia" from its name.

It would be better for Sauber if they returned to Sports cars, they have past experience and it would be a lot cheaper to run.

Would anyone else here like to see Sauber run in LMP1 or LMP2?

It would be sad to see Sauber drop off the grid due to money issues as that teams been around in F1 since 1993, I think the team needs new fresh leadership with lots of cash (obviously) but you don't seem to have much millionaires these days willing to spend their cash on F1 teams. I'm referencing g...

Race leader mostly by default... Those pit overtakes must of been hard....

The German Markus Winkelhock who raced for Spyker F1 in 2007...I doubt any of you guys remember him. xD

He was a test driver for Midland in 2006 and later got a one race drive with Spyker at the 2007 European GP.

Which of these teams had the best final season in F1? (Excluding the actual race results) These are the factors to consider when making your choice: Best team atmosphere? Best driver line up? Best looking car? Most emotional goodbye? ------------------------------------------------------- Choices: M...

Didn't Middlebridge Racing operate the Brabham team in its final years?

You've got to feel for the poor guy though, his last chance of F1 with Tyrrell in 1998 must of been a horrible experience with nearly all of the team hating him from the beginning, I personally blame the team for Rosset's bad season as its meant to be up to team to stand behind their driver in the g...

I see what you did there

Was Ricardo Rosset actually a terrible driver? He was provided with terrible cars through his really short F1 career: 1996: Footwork FA17 - Hart V8 engine - 1997: Lola T97/30 - Ford V8 engine - 1998: Tyrrell 026 - Ford V10 engine - He had a pretty decent showing in junior categories: 1995: Super Nov...

The unraced DAMS GD01 has quite the snazzy livery



You could probably call this a reject of the rejects.

Despite some teams failing on the actual racing side of building a car you did get teams who did put some effort into the cars livery. So I would like to know your favourite reject livery. One of my favourites has to be the Tyrrell 026 - 1998 livery https://c2.staticflickr.com/2/1398/5104277087_2b53...

Does anybody know the reason for the F1 Reject website to be down?

Hello everyone I'm new to the forums and I'm ready to talk about the many failures of F1.
