GPR Awards – 2023 Formula 1 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix

This year, Grand Prix Rejects has nothing new to say involving the travesty that is the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix. To avoid repeating ourselves, we will instead boycott discussing the event. For more information on why, please consult Amnesty International’s most recent report on the

GPR Awards – 2023 Formula 1 Bahrain Grand Prix

In what turned out to be a rather ominous start to the season, Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez absolutely trounced the entire Formula One grid, 1-2 in qualifying to an untroubled 1-2 in the race. While it was plain sailing for the defending champions, other

2022 Season Review

Overview  2022 was a long year to be a Formula 1 fan. When the excitement of the Max Verstappen-Lewis Hamilton duel ended in such controversy the year before, it seemed a little inevitable that the new year would be a continuation of the old. With

GPR Awards – 2022 Formula 1 Singapore Grand Prix

With a surprisingly dominant win from Sergio Perez, even the unexpected seems somewhat familiar in 2022. While Max Verstappen’s chance of eclipsing Sebastian Vettel’s winning streak record came to a scruffy end around the streets of Singapore, Charles Leclerc did enough to keep the championship

GPR Awards – 2022 Formula 1 Italian Grand Prix

Most of the Italian Grand Prix was taken up by two areas of discussion: that of the ending of the race behind the safety car, and that of the glorious debut of one Nyck de Vries. While the Netherlands celebrate their first duo since the
