It’s that time of year when families and loved ones get together to celebrate the festive season, and at Grandprix247, we would love to share these moments with our readers, and our bigger Formula 1 family.

We have plenty to be grateful for this year, as we witnessed one of the greatest F1 seasons in recent history, with a titanic fight between the two greatest drivers of their respective generations, Max Verstappen the 2021 Champion, and Lewis Hamilton, his runner up. These two great drivers took the fight down to the wire, not to the last race, but the last lap of the last race of the season. And for the show they and their teams put on, we are grateful.

We are also thankful, that with all the incidents that took place between the pair, they remained safe, and that also goes for all the remaining 18 drivers on the F1 grid, because let’s not forget; F1 is a dangerous sport, and the safety of the drivers and all who work within it is paramount.

Grandprix247 has grown significantly this year, and we have you, our readers, to thank for this.

We thank you for joining us on this rollercoaster of a season, and for your continuous support over the years. For all those readers who joined us this season, we welcome you to our family and hope you enjoy the ride.

With our traffic on an upward curve, we would like to extend our thanks to all the few who clicked our banners, and thanks in advance to all those who will do the same in the future. This is very important for us to continue our growth, and assists us in our quest to keep bringing you free and independent F1 news.

Finally, we wish you a very Merry Christmas along with your families and loved ones. And we urge you to stay safe and celebrate responsibly in these pandemic-afflicted times we are going through, always hoping that we can return to our normal lives as soon as possible.
