Split racing record to own article

edit

I saw the Juan Pablo Montoya article and noticed that his "racing record" section is separated into its own article. So, is anyone interested in separating the "racing record" section in this article into "Career results of Fernando Alonso"? F1fans (talk) 01:30, 1 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Why? I'm not sure such a split would be appropriate or in the readers best interest. Yes, this article is very large, and yes, it could do with a split, but moving all his results to a separate page doesn't seem the best way to go about it. Surely a better split would be Formula One career of Fernando Alonso - then we can also move the race-by-race results for Alonso's F1 career there and only have the broad season summary here. Because the big problem with Montoya's articles at the moment is that tables of results are best viewed with the context of prose about those results, and the prose is best viewed the context of the results (in my opinion). So I don't think the way Montoya's articles is split is a good way to go about it. SSSB (talk) 10:32, 1 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

In his 'Personal life' section, change: He is 174 cm (5'9") tall

to: He is 171 cm (5'6") tall

The current information shows an incorrect conversion of cm to feet/inches, and the height in cm shown is *only* shown in the cited source and nowhere else. Therefore, also change the source to any of the links below:

Incorrect points

edit

The total F1 points amased by Fernando Alonso is 2325 and not 2323 as stated in the article, the editor forgot to add 2 points to the total after his promotion from 9th postion to 8th position following the disqualification of George Russell at the 2024 Belgian GP, The racing record of Fernando adds upto 2325 points and so does the official F1 website also acknowledges the number of 2325, so the updated number for Fernando Alonso's total F1 points would 2325 and not 2323. 2001:569:FE24:6600:9888:DA09:C6AB:102 (talk) 19:43, 15 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Fixed He was credited with the two extra points following Russell's disqualification from the Belgian GP - see this edit, but we must have missed 2 points somewhere else along the line. Thanks for pointing out the error. DH85868993 (talk) 21:57, 15 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
