BMX World Champion?

I have removed a dubious claim that Wurz have won the 1986 BMX World Championship as mentioned in Talk:Bicycle motocross#Reason of removal of a listed BMXer as I can find nothing at all, plus personal sites are not reliable third party source. Donnie Park (talk) 12:49, 18 September 2010 (UTC)

Peugot le mans career under F1 title

Alex's lemans career with peugot on this page is listed under the heading of F1. Surely this is incorrect and it should be moved to a new heading? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.114.185.84 (talk) 11:57, 25 September 2011 (UTC)

Indeed. Fixed. Thanks. DH85868993 (talk) 02:46, 26 September 2011 (UTC)

Le Mans

"The 13-year gap between Wurz's victories is the largest in the event's history.[2]" - I'm not sure about this.

Hurley Haywood won in 1977, 1983 and 1994. Those are wins that span 17 years.

Luigi Chinetti won the race in 1932, 1934 and 1949. 1932-1949 is 17 years (as with Haywood), and 1934-1949 is a gap of 15 years between race wins.

Is the 'record' for the biggest gap between first win and next win at la Sarthe? I think it either needs explaining better or removing.

I assume it was intended to mean the record for the biggest gap between successive wins for a specific driver. But in that case, as you point out, Chinetti's 15-year gap (1934-49) trumps Wurz's 13 years. Although of course there were only 6 LM24H races actually run between 1934 and 1949, so if it said "The 13-event gap between Wurz's victories..." then that would be a different story. It would be interesting to see exactly what the quoted source said. Regardless, I'd be tempted to remove the statement as it's potentially misleading/confusing.
