A 6-0 defeat at Manchester City saw QPR relegated from the Premier League for the second time in three seasons.
QPR has joined Burnley in suffering relegation from the Premier League following Sunday's 6-0 thrashing by Manchester City.
The London club headed into the Etihad Stadium knowing only a win would keep its slim hopes of survival alive.
But Chris Ramsey's men - who were promoted via the playoffs last season - were put to the sword as Sergio Aguero scored a hattrick, with Aleksandar Kolarov, James Milner and David Silva also on the scoresheet.
Relegation to the Championship will bring another tumultuous campaign at Loftus Road to a disappointing conclusion.
