The '''Rejects-1 World Championship''' was a multi-make open-wheel racing series utilising the poorest performing Formula One cars from the previous 5 seasons, then 3 seasons for each next cycles. The series was owned and managed by the Australian-based [[Markus Mk. Company]], established by the Markus siblings - [[Giuseppe Markus|Giuseppe]], [[Quinn Markus|Quinn]] and [[Giselle Markus|Giselle]].

Withing March 1997, Markus Mk Co. announced they are cancelling the series altogether. Markus family claimed one of each chassis type ever built, while team owners can auction or sell the chassis. Each remaining upgrades fund at bonus money are all theirs.
