Article of the month - List of Formula One drivers, kept at Featured List status after review Formula One, abbreviated to F1, is the highest class of open-wheeled auto racing defined by the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA), motorsport's world governing body. The "formula" in the name refers to a set of rules to which all participants and cars must conform. The F1 world championship season consists of a series of races, known as Grands Prix, held usually on purpose-built circuits, and in a few cases on closed city streets. Drivers are awarded points based on their position in each race, and the driver who accumulates the most points over each calendar year is crowned that year's World Champion. As of the 2009 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, there have been 820 FIA World Championship races since its first event, the 1950 British Grand Prix. Seven-time champion Michael Schumacher holds the record for the most championships, while his 91 wins, 154 podium finishes and 68 pole positions are also records. Rubens Barrichello has entered more Grands Prix than anyone else—288 times in total—as well as having made an unsurpassed 284 race starts. The United Kingdom is the most represented nation, having produced a total of 157 different drivers. Eight nations have been represented by just one. Poland became the latest country to be represented by a driver when Robert Kubica made his Formula One debut at the 2006 Hungarian Grand Prix. (More...)

FIA links

Hi Cs-wolves. I notice you've been fixing a number of links to FIA. In the interests of possibly saving you some effort, notice that WP:NOTBROKEN says it's fine (in fact, recommended) to leave links to redirects in place. Regards. DH85868993 (talk) 02:22, 3 February 2010 (UTC)

Entirely my goof

I apologize for being pretty damn clueless in reverting your US F1 edit. Looking at the diffs, there are significantly large chunks in the undesirable red coloring and much garble to the green and I wasn't able to match all the pieces. I also see that sources were combined where appropriate on different formats being used for different things and some accidental repeats. Normalizing all sources to one particular type is usually left up to personal editor preference to avoid later confusion, but since the majority had the expanded style already it's a net plus on the look. Again, you have my apologies. ♪ daTheisen(talk) 00:17, 6 February 2010 (UTC)

Re:Talk archive navigation thingy

Thanks, I was going through my archives looking for something and remembered that I'd seen a navigation template somewhere before. As for the GP2 drivers category, I'm all for splitting it into Main and Asia subcats - I was just in lazy mode when I put the note there! And that reminds me that I have to update the List of GP2 Asia Series drivers.--Midgrid(talk) 22:37, 7 February 2010 (UTC)

Audi DTM car years

Hi. Saw that you reverted User:PrettyP's revision on changing the model year for the Audi DTM cars. I've looked into this, as I'd spotted that the cited Autosport story mentions 2008 models, and I found the official Audi release. The five drivers of older models are down as driving 2008 (R14) model, while the main 4 will drive R14 Plus models (2009?). I'm not sure whether this was something to do with a DTM development freeze or something? Thanks - mspete93 19:32, 19 February 2010 (UTC)

Re:F3000 result boxes

I don't mind, as long as the (few) result boxes that exist from the years when the series used multi-chassis/engine combinations are not affected.--Midgrid(talk) 19:29, 27 February 2010 (UTC)

You know don't you that the link you provided is only a picture of a flag and does not contain ANY information pertaining to his licence. Not saying I'm going to revert, just that your justifying link is not supporting proof. --Falcadore (talk) 11:46, 28 February 2010 (UTC)

Article of the month - Grand Prix 2, current Peer Review Grand Prix 2, sometimes known as "GP2" and sold in the American market as Grand Prix II, is a racing simulator released by MicroProse in 1996. It was made under an official FIA license that featured the Formula One 1994 season, with all of the circuits, teams, drivers and cars. The cars were painted with liveries reflecting the races that did not allow tobacco and beer sponsors (i.e. 1994 French Grand Prix). It had 3D texture mapping and SVGA graphics, as well as an early but realistic physics engine. A large community of GP2 enthusiasts formed quickly and still exists today. Grand Prix 2 is recognized as one of the definitive racing simulations of its era. (More...)

Driver categories

I have no real plans to make any categories at the moment, but then again I didn't create the ALMS drivers category. So you're free to do one for the other series if you want to take the time for it. The³5₉ (Talk) 20:50, 8 March 2010 (UTC)

Collaboration

Hi! I saw you are involved in many edits like me regarding: GP2, GP3, Auto GP, Formula three series, etc. I noticed you are also interested in Formula Abarth (junior italian championship). I'm going to expand the article... all the rules I found on the official website are in italian language so I can easily work on these sections of the championship. Thank you for your great work! Giagi(talk) 12:40, 13 March 2010 (UTC)

Thanks

Haha, thanks - once I started it seemed wrong to stop. I thought it was better to do them now than to have people trying to do it in a hurry in the minutes following the chequered flag! Bretonbanquet (talk) 13:38, 13 March 2010 (UTC)

Exactly - I look forward to another season of battle with chequered flag IP randomness. Although one or two IPs have corrected a couple of boobs I made with the tables today so fair play. I saw you also picked up a mistake or two, so thanks for that :) Bretonbanquet (talk) 13:52, 13 March 2010 (UTC)

Haha, yes - I reckon between us we've done more results tables than all other editors put together! And no problem - I actually did a few tables with the car name formatted wrongly myself before I realised.. hang on a sec.. had to go back and redo them. I put it down to start-of-the-season rustiness! Bretonbanquet (talk) 14:01, 13 March 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for fixing the Kimball reference that I messed up. Mercenary Roadie (talk) 21:04, 17 March 2010 (UTC)

What code did you use to hide the sections in the 2010 Indy Lights season? Again thanks for cleaning up the track information in the race results section. I realized that I had used the wrong information after it was all done and was going to change it after work. Mercenary Roadie (talk) 17:21, 18 March 2010 (UTC)

Ah, I see. Is that the Wiki markup for adding hidden comment? I would never have thought of using it that way. Thanks for the wiki lession. So much more to learn, so little brain cells left to put it in. Mercenary Roadie (talk) 17:30, 18 March 2010 (UTC)

Formula Abarth

Hi! you, me and OfficialMrX are editing the Formula Abarth section (new italian junior formula), i'm writing the same message to mrx as well.

• How do you know BVM - Target racing has number 8 and 9?
• Why don't we leave Teams and drivers without personal page in black? without red link! It's stupid to create a page for drivers who probably we will never see again in the future....

this is an entry level formula and only top drivers will become famous....

• I suggest to create a page for Raffaele Marciello only, due to his involvement with Ferrari Young Drivers Academy

Superstars entry

Hi there. Just wondering where you found the Superstars lineup for Monza, as it doesn't quite match up with the scrolling thing on the series website. Many thanks - mspete93 18:21, 25 March 2010 (UTC)

That's alright. It pretty much matches what I found anyway. Ghedina's number is different as is the AEFFEM team name. I'll change them later. Thanks - mspete93 18:35, 25 March 2010 (UTC)

You're right of course - I was remembering Hamilton's own comment, but I guess he was thinking about before the collision with Webber. 4u1e (talk) 10:40, 28 March 2010 (UTC)

HRT - Hispania

I reverted your change on the above subject because whether or not it ignores the discussion of the subject here it appears to, and because whether right or wrong it is not acceptable to pass a change made in the face of such discussion off as a "Minor Tweak". Britmax (talk) 14:07, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

Round by Round Entry List

The table allows the coloumn within the other table that says rounds to be referanced correctly! Its worth the bytes to make the article more transparent. Maybe it could be somehow incorporated with the rounds bit of the entry list table to give the table greater reliblity. Just a personal opinion but i don't see the problem with having more information. Plus its been on the 2009 article since the end of last season and no one has said anything...

Article of the month - 2008 Hungarian Grand Prix, current Featured Article candidate. The 2008 Hungarian Grand Prix (formally the XXIII ING Magyar Nagydíj) was a Formula One motor race held on August 3, 2008, at Hungaroring in Mogyoród, near Budapest, Hungary. It was the 11th race of the 2008 Formula One season. Contested over 70 laps, the race was won by Heikki Kovalainen for the McLaren team, from a second position start. Timo Glock finished second in a Toyota car, with Kimi Räikkönen third in a Ferrari. It marked Kovalainen's first Formula One victory, which made him the sport's 100th driver to win a World Championship race, and Glock's first podium finish. Much of the race, however, was dominated by a duel between Lewis Hamilton and Felipe Massa, who drove for McLaren and Ferrari respectively. Hamilton started from pole position on the starting grid but was beaten at the first corner by Massa, who passed him around the outside. The two championship protagonists commenced a battle for the lead that was resolved when Hamilton suffered a puncture just over half-way through the race, giving Massa a comfortable lead.

2010 BSB table

Hi, i just noticed that you re-ordered the bottom part of the BSB table (the none points scorers). The reason they were ordered like that was thats the order they are written on the BSB website. http://www.britishsuperbike.com/media/1375923/standings.pdf I understand why you changed it because how you layed it out makes more sense but just thought i would check to see if we are correct :) Xrateddan (talk) 18:41, 21 April 2010 (UTC)

If you look at what you did in 2009 British Formula Three season when guest entries won a race you will see it is inconsistent with what you've done for 2010. Officially Mr X (talk) 12:57, 3 May 2010 (UTC)

No problem. Well done, you do lots of great work here. Just a heads-up, cos I don't know much about these series, there were races in 2010 Super GT season and 2010 International GT Open season this weekend that haven't been updated. Thanks. Officially Mr X (talk) 18:55, 3 May 2010 (UTC)

I try to do my best but admittedly I'm a bit lazy on the refs. Officially Mr X (talk) 19:00, 3 May 2010 (UTC)

That's true, and very inciteful about getting articles up to standard. There are definitely motorsport articles, especially driver pages, which are not only a bit sparse but also starting to fall behind in terms of regular updating. I'm not in any way saying it's your responsibility but I think it's important to express the fact. Officially Mr X (talk) 19:12, 3 May 2010 (UTC)

Re:Newsletter

I guess Senna would be the best option, as 2008 Hungarian Grand Prix was used last month and the other article which has reached a milestone, List of Formula One fatal accidents, doesn't really work because it's in list form.--Midgrid(talk) 18:44, 3 May 2010 (UTC)

Article of the month – Ayrton Senna, current B-Class article. Ayrton Senna da Silva, (pronounced [aˈiɾtõ ˈsenɐ da ˈsiwvɐ] ; São Paulo, March 21, 1960, – Bologna Italy May 1, 1994) was a Brazilian racing driver and three-time Formula One world champion. He was killed in a crash while leading the 1994 San Marino Grand Prix, and remains the most recent Grand Prix driver to die at the wheel of a Formula One car. Senna began his motorsport career in karting and moved up the ranks to win the British Formula 3 championship in 1983. Making his Formula One debut with Toleman in 1984, he moved to Lotus-Renault the following year, and won six Grands Prix over the next three seasons. In 1988 he joined Frenchman Alain Prost at McLaren-Honda. Between them, Senna and Prost won fifteen out of the sixteen Grands Prix which took place that season, with Senna winning his first World Championship, a title he would go on to win again in 1990 and 1991. McLaren's performance declined in 1992, as the Williams-Renault combination began to dominate the sport, although Senna won five races to finish as runner-up in 1993. He moved to Williams in 1994, but suffered a fatal accident at the third race of the season at the Autodromo Enzo e Dino Ferrari in Italy. Senna is regarded as one of the greatest drivers in the history of Formula One. In 2009, a poll of 217 current and former Formula One drivers chose Senna as their greatest Formula One driver, in a survey conducted by British magazine Autosport. He was recognised for his qualifying speed over one lap and from 1989 until 2006 held the record for most pole positions. He was among the most talented drivers in extremely rain-affected conditions, as shown by his performances in the 1984 Monaco Grand Prix, the 1985 Portuguese Grand Prix, and the 1993 European Grand Prix. He also holds the record for most victories at the prestigious Monaco Grand Prix (6) and is the third most successful driver of all time in terms of race wins. However, Senna courted controversy throughout his career, particularly during his turbulent rivalry with Alain Prost, which was marked by two championship-deciding collisions at the 1989 and 1990 Japanese Grands Prix.
