Germany voted 2019 Grand Prix of the Year

Your votes have placed the German Grand Prix as the best race of the 2019 Formula 1 season, and the best since our race rankings began in 2016.


The German Grand Prix, won by Max Verstappen, topped the popularity list in our post-race Twitter polls for 2019. Held in wet conditions, the chaotic race is memorable for multiple drivers crashing out, a surprise podium finish for Daniil Kvyat and Toro Rosso, and a fightback for Sebastian Vettel from last on the grid to second place. The race, which was the last at Hockenheim for the foreseeable future, received a 97% overall positive rating, with 90% giving it the best possible rating. With the result, the 2019 German Grand Prix usurped the 2016 Spanish Grand Prix as being voted the best race of the last four seasons.

The 2019 Brazilian Grand Prix, in which both Pierre Gasly and Carlos Sainz scored their first podium finishes, was the rather distant runner-up. The Interlagos race received a 77% great rating, with 95% of you rating it positive overall. Austria was a close third. All of this year’s top three races were won by Red Bull’s Max Verstappen.

At the other end of the table, the French Grand Prix was ranked the worst race this year, and last of the 83 races held in the past four seasons. Formula 1’s 1000th race, in China, also failed to impress.

All three of this year’s top three races went straight into the top five races from the last four seasons. The 2019 British and Bahrain Grands Prix also reached the top ten. The full results from the last four seasons can be found here.
