I've been sticking to kits lately, but I did get this reject for a very nice price.

You're right, he is a reject. 1 5th place only, so 2 points.

You seem to forget his three other 6th places scored when they didn't count for points ;)

In that case Mazzacane isnt either an Reject driver
Jan Lammers isnt, if they did count the 7 6 8 9 and 10th position they scored :)

It all depends on how many points they scored with the 10/9-6-4-3-2-1 system. Using that system, Pilette has five points, and is not a reject. Lammers and Mazzacane have 0 points in that system, and are rejects. Easy.

Lammers would have scored 4 points , right out my head he scored two 9th places and one 10th place.
Also one 10th place with ATX in 1980 but im not sure.

And Mazzacane scored at least two 8thplaces im positive of that


Or am i getting confused atm with the point system ?


Its between impossible to compare the diffrent pointsystems they had in the last 63 years.
You should keep the point system per period as they where giving i think.

Nope, the reject criteria depends only on the 10/9-6-4-3-2-1 system. I mean, Friesacher is next on the list in terms of driver profiles, and he scored 3 points in his points system. The thing is that he only scored 1 point in the system that matters reject-wise. Pilette scored 2 in the contemporary system, but his three other sixth places unrejectify him. Lammers and Mazzacane never finished in the top six, so aren't even within a point or two of unrejectification.

Can't wait for Friesacher's profile. The part about Indy 2005 will be interesting, especially as that race prevents Karthikeyan from ever getting a profile.

Can't really argue with you. Although I was overjoyed at Jordan scoring a podium at the time.

OK, Reject criteria. Forget about the points.

Any of 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th places - you're not a reject.
Best result = 7th or worse - you're a reject.
At least 3 6th - not a reject
1 5th plus one 6th - not a reject
2 5th - not a reject
1 5th or one or two 6th - reject.

As says the holy site:

All a former Formula One driver needs to do to escape eligibility for this site is to have been successful in F1. Specifically, they must have scored ...
• a 4th, 3rd, 2nd or 1st place, or
• a 5th place, plus any other top-6 result, or
• three or more 6th places
How hard can that be? Very!

Getting quite off-topic now, but I'm really looking forward to seeing what Barrichello has to say about Indy 2005. In his interview with Maurice Hamilton in the latest F1 Racing, he says that there was a lot of communication over the radio that day, and he's going to reveal all in his book which will be coming out soon. Along with everything else that has gone on in Rubens' career, that should be a great read!

No problem! Here's a link to the criteria for drivers, and here's the criteria for rejectful teams (which is a bit different).

A couple of different reject models. They're 1:12th scale helmets, made by Onyx many years ago. I had never bought any before, but I got these 2 for a nice price.

I've got one of these as well :) I've been a long-time lurker here, but I've been on a recent eBay tear, buying every sub-$15 F1 diecast in sight :D Have built up quite the collection, but the Tarquini Tyrrell, along with a Deletraz Pacific which now has a broken rear axle after a recent move and a Frentzen Sauber, were my first.

Since I work for Ford, I've been specifically looking for any Ford/Cosworth-engined cars...still trying to find a Senna MP4/8 for under $20. Did get an Onyx one with the #7 on it, but that's not quite what I'm after...

highlanderfil, you'll struggle to find a Senna model for under £20- I've found Senna and Mansell models to be the highest priced on Ebay over my years of trailing through.

But do be patient; I've just managed to secure my holy grail- a 1994 Erik Comas Larrouse in Kronenbourg livery (made by Eligor- very rare and usually stupidly priced)- after several years of waiting!

So far I have successfully secured three, all Onyx:

- McLaren Honda from what I believe was 1991. I wasn't as serious about collecting then, so I just started carrying it around with me as a "travel protector" along with a broken Senna keychain fob (the one superstition I allow myself, heh) and so have more or less destroyed it (rear wing off, paint chipped).
- McLaren Ford from 1993, which must be either a modification or a production error as it has the number 7 on it (Onyx Model 178). The correct one, 179, keeps slipping through my fingers in auctions.
- Williams Renault from 1994, the test car, I believe.

All of them were under $20 shipped. so it can be done but will require patience.

Speaking of that Larrousse - I have it! Bought it as part of a huge eBay spree. It's a lovely model.

Correction: four Senna models :) A 1990 McLaren Honda just arrived.

Whew, I've finally made a catalogue of sorts. Strictly reject-themed (combination of driver/car not scoring more than 2 points), I've got the following (all 1/43):

Minichamps:

- 1984 Tyrrell Ford 012 (M. Brundle)*
- 1994 Simtek Ford S941 (D. Brabham)
- 1995 Sauber Ford C14 (K. Wendlinger)
- 1995 Simtek Ford S951 (J. Verstappen)
- 1997 Stewart Ford SF01 (J. Magnussen)
- 1998 Prost Peugeot AP01 (O. Panis)
- 1999 Sauber Petronas C18 (J. Alesi)
- 2003 Renault R23 (F. Montagny)

*Included here on a technicality since Tyrrell was DSQed in 1984 and its results were excluded.

Onyx:

- 1989 Leyton House March Judd GC891 (M. Gugelmin)
- 1990 Lotus Lamborghini 102 (M. Donnelly)
- 1991 Lotus Judd 102B (J. Herbert)
- 1992 Jordan Yamaha 192 (S. Modena)
- 1992 Lotus Ford 107 (J. Herbert)
- 1994 Benetton Ford B194 (J.-J. Lehto)
- 1994 Pacific Team Lotus Ford PR02 (J.-D. Deletraz)
- 1994 Tyrrell Yamaha 023 (G. Tarquini)

(the aforementioned) Eligor:

- 1994 Larrousse Ford LH94 (E. Comas)

I picked up a whole bunch of the Minichamps cars for anywhere from $0.99 to $5 or so on eBay...couldn't believe nobody wanted them, so I probably ended up with a few I wouldn't have otherwise bought were it not for the price :D

I am fairly certain I either have a second Magnussen Stewart by Minichamps back in storage, as well. Or it could be a Herbert one...

Who remembers that I build F1 kits? No it's okay, I too sometimes forget that I do!

I've recently completed two 1:24 scale models, a Larousse Lola LC90 (Suzuki's of course) and a Ferrari 156/85 (Alboreto's). They're not 1:43 as the thread title suggests but I've posted my exploits in here before so here we go again!

Here's a couple of pics - there's a few more on my model club's Flickr page here. (Incidentally all the F1 cars have been done by me).

I build models, mainly aircraft but also the odd F1 cars, mainly build Tamiya 1/20 which are quite common.

Not rejectful, but last build the Lotus 99T (1987). Yellow 'LOTUS' livery. Using Senna's name and number. Was very delighted to have found tobacco decals within the kit though, which makes the model look even better. I did do a little bit of detailing (engine cover off showing turbo, a little bit of cables/pipes etc.) but they don't look as good as yours I must say.

I merged my Lotus to a pit crew set as well, which does make a nice Diorama too.

Must say he B70 Valkyrie looks amazing, and the aircraft with the cargo coming out looks rad too!
Miserable Thierry (Boutsen) staggers round mostly on ten cylinders (out of 12) with no clutch, low oil pressure, bad brakes and no grip to finish tenth, 3 laps down...

Nice! I have the 99T as one of mine to do next, currently resurrecting an old partially ruined B192 from when I first started out. The 99T I'm hoping will be fairly straightforward - just throw the chrome yellow over it and chuck the decals on! Mine has tobacco ones with it as well - I think we must have original releases as the re-released version from a couple of years back (the black box one) definitely doesn't.

Yeah It is the original version. Unfortunately it does not come with driver figure, which I generally prefer, but that's just personal.

Saying that I do have a Tyrrell P34 (6 wheeler) in the stash somewhere, which does have a driver figure. That seems simple, all it is literally a Blue and White livery.

Interestingly, it comes with wires to make it looks like cables as the engine is exposed (the norm back then) and also the Goodyear lettering on the rubber tyres need to be painted on, there is a slight outline, but might/can be challenging.

A driver figure is also supplied! 8-) 8-)

Re: 1/43 F1 Reject-themed model collection

Post by Bobby Doorknobs »

Just looking through this thread and I feel somewhat ashamed to admit that my collection, impressive though it is, is made up mostly of race- and championship-winning cars. Nevertheless, here's what I have:

- 1952 Ferrari 375 Indy - Alberto Ascari (yes, the very car that Ferrari brought to the Indy 500)
- 1953 Ferrari 500 F2 - Alberto Ascari
- 1954 Mercedes W196 - Juan Manuel Fangio (full-width bodywork version)
- 1959 Cooper T51-Climax - Jack Brabham
- 1963 Lotus 25-Climax - Jim Clark
- 1967 Eagle Mk1-Weslake - Richie Ginther
- 1971 Tyrrell 003-Ford - Jackie Stewart
- 1976 Ferrari 312T - Niki Lauda
- 1977 McLaren M23-Ford - James Hunt
- 1977 Tyrrell P34-Ford - Ronnie Peterson
- 1981 Ferrari 126CK - Gilles Villeneuve
- 1983 Tyrrell 012-Ford - Michele Alboreto (I had wanted the car that got Tyrrell their last win, only to later realise that was the 011 :oops:, at least it's from the same year)
- 1986 Lotus 98T-Renault - Ayrton Senna
- 1995 Simtek S951-Ford - Domenico Schiattarella (Of course I would own a Simtek :D)
- 1996 Williams FW18-Renault - Jacques Villeneuve
- 1996 Jordan 196-Peugeot - Rubens Barrichello
- 1997 Arrows A18-Yamaha - Pedro Diniz
- 1999 Ferrari F399 - Michael Schumacher
- 2001 Williams FW23-BMW - Ralf Schumacher
- 2005 Renault R25 - Fernando Alonso
- 2006 Honda RA106 - Jenson Button
- 2008 Ferrari F2008 - Felipe Massa
- 2011 Red Bull RB7-Renault - Sebastian Vettel
- 2011 McLaren MP4-26-Mercedes x2 - Lewis Hamilton & Jenson Button (My dad bought me two, one for each driver, for my birthday one year. I don't understand why)

Of course, I am after some more reject cars (AGSs, Colonis, Fernandes-Lotuses, Super Aguris etc.). On top of the list above my brother apparently used to have an early '90s Lotus, which was lost some 15 years ago. He blames me, naturally, as I'm the one who lost our copy of F1 97 for the PS1 around the same time :P

I have only one F1 model. I believe if someone only has one model it should be this:

Will buy a few as soon as I get paid, because this thread totally convinced me that having a PS01 is MUCH more vital than food for example. :deletraz:

Not F1, but I have a few WTCC models though. Some of them rejects of the series. Just a list if anyone cares:
Rickard Rydell - 2005 Silverstone - Seat Toledo
Salvatore Tavano - 2006 Puebla - Alfa 156
Luca Rangoni - 2007 Monza - BMW 320 (This one was for like 2 euros, as it has a slight wing damage from transport)
Pierre-Yves Corthals - 2007 Brands Hatch - Seat León
Alexander Lvov - 2007 Anderstorp - Honda Accord (This might be quite rare, given the obscurity of the driver?)
Norbert Michelisz - 2011 Hungaroring - BMW 320
Alex MacDowall - 2013 dunno - Chevrolet Cruze

Not really rejectful, but I've today finally completed my collection of all eight cars from the original Onyx year of 1988 (Senna-Prost; Piquet-Nakajima; Alboreto-Berger; Nannini-Boutsen). Investgating this thread has made me realise that it's taken me four years to do!

I have at least one car from each team produced in 1989 and 1990 also, and am determined to stop wasting my money now!

Haven't posted in this thread for quite a while, even though I've bought a few more cars. (I've also reposted some of the cars I've already shown here as the image links on the previous posts are dead).

Not quite an F1 Reject this one, though anything to do with A1GP probably belongs in this thread.

This is a cool spot.

A Minardi with 21 on the front wing and 20 on the sidepod? Reject gold, that one.

Strange how I always thought of the Onyx models as being the ultimate scaled-down job with the finest detail, but seeing them next to the Minichamps it's clear they're not. Either that or they just couldn't be bothered with Paul Belmondo's Pacific...

Someone explained that the rights for using Badoers name were with Ferrari, and Ferrari had an exclusivity contract with another model manufacturer.
