Your editing tactics

I must admit, I find your prowess with citing Wikipedia policy/rules quite incredible. However, your tactics leave quite a lot to be desired. Deleting entire contributions from others who aren't as knowledgeable about Wikipedia policy, while citing policy, without constructive criticism, is combative and against the spirit of the fifth and fourth pillars of Wikipedia (WP:FIVE). Latching onto my personal point of view (which I disclosed up front in good faith) while continuously bringing up every misstep on my part, shows bad faith in constructively building consensus on what should be on the page and how it should be presented WP:CONS. Cursing at me and telling me to go away on IRC was very much against the principle of welcoming others to wikipedia WP:NICE. It almost looked as if you were gaming the system to subvert the process of building Wikipedia through teamwork WP:GAME.

So if there is a principle that if a rule prevents one from improving wikipedia, we should ignore it WP:IAR, why would you set yourself up as the supreme dictator of a page, citing rigid application of policy for the exclusion of material, while there are mechanisms to improve the quantity as well as the quality of the material?

Basically, I think what you've been doing is policy shopping. WP:SHOP (The example given seems awfully familiar...) In the end, you finally reverted to the I Don't Like It policy. WP:IDL

As a lay-editor, I have many contributions to Wikipedia, but I usually am in pursuit of other interests, so I don't keep really fresh on Wikipedia policy. However, I sometimes catch typos, vandalism, or other problems on pages as I use Wikipedia. Further, I try to be constructive when I think something encyclopedic should be added to it. You nearly soured me on Wikipedia, costing the project the benefit of my contributions. I'd suggest you read Dale Carnegie's How to Win Friends and Influence People before you go off on your next wikipedian smackdown. And work on refuting the central point or helping the other guy make his, instead of quibbling over policy.Aaronchall (talk) 09:59, 12 November 2010 (UTC)

Demanding References

Youself and Falcadore keep demanding "references", yet a lot of this page has no references when it was originally written, so the initial writer (by the look of it falcafore anyway)never proved a lot of what they originally wrote. You removed the statement that David John has had his bankruptcy annulled, as you are unable to post links to the actual page at the insolvency service, you will have to look it up, I suggest you prove he is bankrupt, because by deleting my revision you are stating that he is still bankrupt, which is infact incorrect, he has been granted an annullment, you have now made a statement that is factual incorrect. I note that my statements to yourself and falcadore declaring that I actually have the knowledge because of my position (rather than taking things from internet forums and rumour) have been deleted, I assume this is to remove the possibility that anyone might question the validity of yours or falcadores knowlegdge. Falcadore made a statement in the MW Motorsport page that MW Motorsport are running Matthew Hamilton in a TKR sponsored car, he did not reference this, in fact if you look at MW motorsports website they DO NOT list Matthew as one of there drivers. I suggest you take a long hard look at what is really going on before you have a go at me again.

I was a director of the company! Falcadore even updated the page to state I was last year! I had in my message pointed this out and also mentioned that I am still contracted to the comapany as an advisor! This was deleted by someone. You can't post a link to the actual page at the insolvency service that shows it because it won't allow you. The media in NZ has not reported the story of his annullment because to quote Shaun Summerfield of TV3, "it's not Newsworthy". David John is NOT bankrupt, you have been advised he is not and you keep removing the statement that he is not, I will happily send you a screen dump from the insolvency service to satisfy you if you want to supply an email address (although the time you took writing to me you could have looked it up and verified it)If we are saying that wikipedia needs to be verified solely through the media then we have a problem, particuarly when it comes to NZ motorsport —Preceding unsigned comment added by Porsche911guy (talk • contribs) 23:57, 22 July 2010 (UTC)

Article of the month – 2008 Hungarian Grand Prix, current Good Article Nominee 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 began a battle for the lead that was resolved when Hamilton sustained a punctured tyre just over half-way through the race, giving Massa a comfortable lead. The Ferrari's engine, however, failed with three laps of the race remaining, allowing Kovalainen to take the win. (More...)

Article of the month – 2008 Japanese Grand Prix, featured on the Main Page. The 2008 Japanese Grand Prix (formally the XXXIV Fuji Television Japanese Grand Prix) was a Formula One motor race held on October 12, 2008, at the Fuji Speedway, Oyama, Japan. It was the 16th race of the 2008 Formula One season. The race, contested over 67 laps, was won by Fernando Alonso for the Renault team from fourth position on the starting grid. Robert Kubica finished second for BMW Sauber, and Kimi Räikkönen third for Ferrari. Lewis Hamilton, the eventual Drivers' Champion, led the Championship going into the race, and started from pole position alongside Räikkönen. Hamilton's McLaren teammate Heikki Kovalainen began from third, next to Alonso. At the first corner Hamilton braked late, forcing Räikkönen wide. Hamilton was later given a penalty, and was criticised by the British racing press for overly aggressive driving. Ferrari driver Felipe Massa, Hamilton's principal Championship rival, was penalised after an incident on lap two in which he touched Hamilton's car, causing it to spin. The incident dropped Hamilton to the back of the field, from where he was unable to regain a pointscoring position. Massa later collided with Sébastien Bourdais of Toro Rosso. Bourdais was penalised after the race, and demoted from sixth to tenth position. The penalty prompted widespread criticism from the racing media and ex-drivers. The victory was Alonso's second consecutive win; he started from 15th on the grid to win the Singapore Grand Prix two weeks prior. Kubica held off a determined attack from Räikkönen in the closing laps to take second place. Massa's seventh place narrowed his gap to Hamilton in the Drivers' Championship to five points. Ferrari established a seven point lead over the McLaren team in the Constructors' Championship, with two races of the season remaining. (More...)

Article of the month – Brabham BT49, new Good Article The Brabham BT49 (pronounced /ˈbræbəm/) is a Formula One racing car designed by South African Gordon Murray for the British Brabham team. The BT49 competed in the 1979 to 1982 Formula One World Championships and was used by Brazilian driver Nelson Piquet to win his first World Championship in 1981. The car was initially designed in 1979 as a short notice replacement for the team's Alfa Romeo-engined BT48, after Brabham team owner Bernie Ecclestone decided to end his relationship with the Italian engine manufacturer. The BT49 was created in only six weeks using elements of the BT48 chassis together with the widely used Cosworth DFV engine. It is a single seater with an open cockpit and exposed wheels. The monocoque chassis is made from aluminium alloy and carbon fibre composites. The car was fitted with controversial hydropneumatic suspension and water-cooled brakes at different points in its life. The BT49 was updated over four seasons taking a total of seven wins, six poles and 135 points. Seventeen were eventually built, most of which survive today. Some are used successfully in historic motorsport; Christian Glaesel won the 2005 FIA Historic Formula One Championship driving a BT49D. (More...)

Super GT

I simply reverted the edit that an IP user with a history of vandalism made. I don't know much about GT, but since the user deleted a whole section I assumed it was part of his vandalism. Sorry about that.  CET   †  10:45, 6 October 2010 (UTC)

Publicity

Thank you for pointing out that the initials "PR" stand for "Peer Review" in Wikipedia. In the world I inhabit, they stand for "Public Relations", most commonly. I was using it wrong. This is the very first I have heard of it since I don't watch Afds. I used it often outside of spam nominations and will now not use it again. Student7 (talk) 11:24, 12 October 2010 (UTC)

North Korean invasion

Hey 359,

I saw you deleted an edit to the 2010 Formula One season page about the Korean Grand Prix being put off because of an invasion by the North as you could not see the reference. The reference itself does actually contain a direct quote from Bernie Ecclestone saying that the only thing that can stop the race is an invasion, even though the article is primarily about Austin. The quote came at the end of the article. That said, I can see why you deleted it on the grounds of there being a dozen other reasons why it might be called off. I just thought you might be interested to know - it wasn't an attempt to pass off an illegitimate edit with an irrelevant source. Prisonermonkeys (talk) 09:17, 13 October 2010 (UTC)

2010 ALMS

Hi.

You just deleted my teams and drivers table from the 2010 ALMS season. I don't think that it is unnecessary, because the whole purpose of the chart was to show who had competed for which team in which round. Comments before deletion again? I have started a discussion at the articles talk page. WilliamF1two (talk) 18:09, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

Article of the month – 2008 Hungarian Grand Prix, currently undergoing WP:PR 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 was Kovalainen's first Formula One victory, which made him the sport's 100th driver to win a World Championship race, and was Glock's first podium finish. The majority of the race 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 rivals began a battle for the lead that was resolved when Hamilton sustained a punctured tyre just over half-way through the race, giving Massa a comfortable lead. The Ferrari's engine, however, failed with three laps of the race remaining, allowing Kovalainen to win. (More...)

Marussia Virgin

Hey 359,

I've moved Marussia Virgin up in the teams table on the 2011 Formula One season page. This reference - http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/motorsport/formula_one/9178539.stm - makes it pretty clear that Marussia now own a controlling stake in the team. They're not title sponsors; Virgin are. We list Williams under 'W' for 'Williams', not 'A' for 'AT&T Williams', so I figure we should list Marussia under 'M' insteand of 'V'.

Can this IP be blocked, please? Looking at the "contribution" a.k.a. vandalism attempt, it is exactly the same as the previous attempts at the same page by a user which has been blocked already for not just vandalizing this page, but also for widespread vandalism related to an imaginary "Super GT World Championship".

There is no such thing as a Gulfstream 6. Gulfstream Aerospace does not make an aircraft with that designation. If you read the article from Future entirely, it even states at much. Gulfstream aircrafts are desinated from 150 to 650. Neovu79 (talk) 03:52, 1 December 2010 (UTC)

Wondering what to do now. The edittor has finally contacted me on my talk page - to threaten me with a block he cannot actually implement. --Falcadore (talk) 07:09, 29 December 2010 (UTC)

Now he's added profanity to the threats. --Falcadore (talk) 07:14, 29 December 2010 (UTC)

I suggest leaving it to administrators to get to when they get to it. He is already reported, and clearly will not stop until blocked. There is no point in continuing to revert as he will 99% likely be blocked shortly anyway. The³5₉ (Talk) 07:16, 29 December 2010 (UTC)

Article of the month – Indianapolis Motor Speedway, current Good article nominee. The Indianapolis Motor Speedway, located in Speedway, Indiana (an enclave suburb of Indianapolis) in theUnited States, is the home of the Indianapolis 500-Mile Race and the Brickyard 400. It has existed since 1909, and is the original Speedway, the first racing facility historically to incorporate the word. With a permanent seating capacity for more than 257,000 people and infield seating that raises capacity to approximately 400,000, it is the largest and highest-capacity sporting facility in the world. Considered relatively flat by American standards but high-banked by Europeans, the track is a two-and-a-half-mile, nearly rectangular oval with dimensions that have remained essentially unchanged since its inception: four 1/4-mile turns, two 5/8-mile long straightaways between the fourth and first and second and third turns, and two 1/8-mile short straightaways, termed "short chutes," between the first and second, and third and fourth turns. A modern infield road course was constructed between 1998 and 2000, incorporating the western and southern portions of the oval (including the southwest turn) to create a 2.605-mile (4.192 km) track. In 2008, the road course was modified to replace the southwest turn with an additional infield section, for motorcycle use, resulting in a 2.621-mile (4.218 km) course. Altogether, the current grounds have expanded from an original 320 acres (1.3 km2) on which the Speedway was first built to cover over an area of over 559. Placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975 and designated a National Historic Landmark in 1987, it currently remains the only such landmark to be affiliated with automotive racing history. In addition to the Indianapolis 500, the speedway also hosts NASCAR's Brickyard 400. From 2000 to 2007 the speedway also hosted the United States Grand Prix for Formula One. The inaugural USGP race drew an estimated 225,000 spectators, setting a Formula One attendance record. In 2008, the Speedway added the Indianapolis motorcycle Grand Prix, a Grand Prix motorcycle racing event. Since August 19, 1909, 248 automobile races have taken place, with 137 separate drivers winning. After winning his fifth United States Grand Prix at Indianapolis in 2006, Formula One driver Michael Schumacher holds the record for most victories between the three major events (Indianapolis 500, Brickyard 400 and theF1 USGP), with all taking place on the Forumula One version of the road course. A. J. Foyt, Al Unser and Rick Mears each won the Indianapolis 500 four times on the traditional oval, and Jeff Gordon has also won four times on the oval in the Brickyard 400. No driver to date has won any combination of the three major events, with only one driver, (Juan Pablo Montoya), having competed in all three, winning the Indy 500, finishing fourth in the US Grand Prix, and placing second in the Brickyard 400. Johnny Aitken holds the record for total wins at the track, with 15 victories (all on the oval), during the 1909, 1910 and 1916 seasons. (More...)

Regarding your petulant behavior.

I notice you're not an administrator, so you can't block me, nor do you have any power whatsoever to back up your "warning" which was really an insult combined with an assumption of bad faith. It seems that you think you "own" the Like a G6 article, so obviously, I'm not going to edit it or its talk page anymore because I don't want to deal with people like you. I'll be very clear: Leave me alone. I am not taking your bait, nor am I interested in what you think or how you feel. PBF1974 (talk) 20:06, 5 January 2011 (UTC)

Talk pages

Your recent talk page edit is not only unnecessary and uncivil, it is also unhelpful. Attacking other editors, even if you are in discussion with them or refraining from foul language in your insulting, condescending spiels, will not be tolerated. Anyone who feels sincere offense at any of my edit summaries should, in the immortal words of Michelle Malkin, "grow a pair". With all due seriousness, I can't find a single edit summary of mine that does not describe the reasoning behind said edit (and if you so desperately need to see the edit itself, that's what diffs are for), and the only remotely inflammatory summary - besides a vandal revert - was suggesting that those who have sub-mediocre English abilities find a better, more productive use of their time (such as, perhaps, editing their native tongue's Wikipedia) than drag down the already rather-slipshod quality of the en project.

Thank you for your contribution to User Talk:Badger Drink, but we are trying to write an encyclopedia here, so please keep your edits factual and neutral. Our readers are looking for serious articles and will not find joke edits amusing. Remember that Wikipedia is a widely-used reference tool, so we have to take what we do here seriously.

I suppose I should be flattered that my Talk page is of such lasting interest to you. Is "User:The359's Opinions of My Edits, Edit Summary Usage, and Conduct with Editors Who Are Not User:The359; Featuring Occasional Digressions into User:The359's Editorial Opinions Thereof" going to be a weekly feature? Bi-weekly? Maybe a twice-a-week thing? Planning on monetizing it, or is this going to be a non-profit operation? I'm intrigued, and cannot wait to hear more on the matter. I'm sure you know where to find me! Badger Drink (talk) 23:14, 20 January 2011 (UTC)

Article of the month – 2008 Hungarian Grand Prix, peer-reviewed 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 was Kovalainen's first Formula One victory, which made him the sport's 100th driver to win a World Championship race, and was Glock's first podium finish. The majority of the race consisted of 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 rivals began a battle for the lead that was resolved when Hamilton sustained a punctured tyre just over half-way through the race, giving Massa a lead of over 20 seconds over Kovalainen. The Ferrari's engine, however, failed with three laps of the race remaining, allowing the McLaren driver to win. Räikkönen set the race's fastest lap in the other Ferrari, but was hampered by a poor qualifying performance and was stuck behind Alonso and Glock in turn for almost all of the race. As a consequence of the race result, Hamilton extended his lead in the World Drivers' Championship to five points over Räikkönen, with Massa a further three behind. Robert Kubica, who finished eighth after finding his BMW Sauber car to be uncompetitive at the Hungaroring, slipped to 13 points behind Hamilton, ahead of his team-mate Nick Heidfeld and Kovalainen. In the World Constructors' Championship, McLaren vaulted BMW Sauber for second position, 11 points behind Ferrari. (More...)

Räikkönen set the race's fastest lap in the other Ferrari, but was hampered by a poor qualifying performance and was stuck behind Fernando Alonso (Renault) and Glock in turn for almost all of the race. As a consequence of the race, Hamilton extended his lead in the World Drivers' Championship to five points over Räikkönen, with Massa a further three behind. Robert Kubica, who finished eighth after finding his BMW Sauber car uncompetitive at the Hungaroring, slipped to 13 points behind Hamilton, ahead of teammate Nick Heidfeld and Kovalainen. In the World Constructors' Championship, McLaren passed BMW Sauber for second position, 11 points behind Ferrari. (More...)

Article of the month - 2011 Australian Grand Prix The 2011 Australian Grand Prix (formally the 2011 Formula 1 Qantas Australian Grand Prix) was a Formula One motor race held on 27 March 2011 at the Albert Park Circuit in Melbourne. It was the 76th race in the combined history of the Australian Grand Prix that dates back to the 100 Miles Road Race of 1928. Originally planned as the second race of the 2011 Formula One season, it became the season opener with the cancellation of the Bahrain Grand Prix due to civil unrest in the country. The race, contested over 58 laps, was won by the reigning World Champion Sebastian Vettel, driving for Red Bull Racing, after starting from pole position. Lewis Hamilton finished second in a McLaren, and Renault's Vitaly Petrov completed the podium in third place, the first podium finish of his career and the first podium finish for a Russian national.

Recent edit reversions on Le Mans 2011 entry list page

Some of those edits you reverted (those were not my edits, though) may not reference officially confirmed driver announcements, but in certain cases, specifically concerning the Jetalliance Lotus line-ups, they were probably deduced from the drivers of the cars during the Le Mans test weekend, and in general that is a pointer towards what drivers will be driving in what cars. Vikirad (talk) 19:03, 27 April 2011 (UTC)

Thanks

Thanks for letting me know about the edit there. I completely made a mistake. Let the user know that he is not in the wrong. (AROUNDNASCAR (talk) 23:23, 28 April 2011 (UTC))

Article of the month – 1980 Spanish Grand Prix, currently listed for Peer Review The 1980 Spanish Grand Prix (formally the XXVI Gran Premio de Espana) was a Formula One motor race held on June 1, 1980 at Circuito Permanente del Jarama. Originally scheduled to be part of the 1980 Formula One World Championship, following the running of the race it was announced that World Championship points would not be awarded to the competitors, making it a non-championship race. The winner of the race was Alan Jones, driving for the Williams team. Jochen Mass finished second for Arrows and Elio de Angelis third for Team Lotus. Owing to disputes as part of the FISA-FOCA war, the race went ahead without the teams of Ferrari, Alfa Romeo and Renault, because the Fédération Internationale du Sport Automobile (FISA), then the governing body of Formula One, had declared the race illegal. The other teams drove the race, now sanctioned by the Formula One Constructors Association (FOCA). All teams competing in the race ran Ford engines. Carlos Reutemann, Nelson Piquet and Didier Pironi all retired from the race whilst in the lead, Reutemann due to a collision and Pironi and Piquet because of mechanical problems. Only six of the twenty-two drivers who took the start of the race made it to the end, and only three were on the lead lap. (More...)

Marc VDS, Sachsenring

Hey, Matt. Quick query for you, seeing as I never actually saw the race but... is this not how Hennerici/Leinders exited the race on lap one? The spotter guide that I have shows that car 40 has yellow mirrors and although not clear on the video, they seem a lot lighter than the black mirrors of the sister car. Wanted to question first. Cs-wolves(talk) 18:37, 14 May 2011 (UTC)

Don't sweat it, man. You've corrected many of my slight mistakes regarding GT1, so we're all entitled to a little faux pas like that. I had forgotten about the media site because I usually use that Blancpain reports hidden within live timing. Besides, that first corner incident was somewhat minor compared to the one in the GT Masters race today. Cs-wolves(talk) 19:12, 14 May 2011 (UTC)

Ah, that's a bummer. I much preferred the streaming last year, rather than it going to Dailymotion this year. Very disappointed in that. How come it has just suddenly stopped after a couple of rounds? A few of the other FIA series could learn from the SRO with the publically-viewable, unlocked media site so many folk can understand why a particular driver exited the race.

Article of the month – Brabham, featured on the main page (May 2) Motor Racing Developments Ltd., commonly known as Brabham, was a British racing car manufacturer and Formula One racing team. Founded in 1960 by two Australians, driver Jack Brabham and designer Ron Tauranac, the team won four drivers' and two constructors' world championships in its 30-year Formula One history. Jack Brabham's 1966 drivers' championship remains the only such achievement using a car bearing the driver's own name. In the 1960s, Brabham was the world's largest manufacturer of open wheel racing cars for sale to customer teams, and had built more than 500 cars by 1970. During this period, teams using Brabham cars won championships in Formula Two and Formula Three and competed in the Indianapolis 500. In the 1970s and 1980s, Brabham introduced innovations such as the "fan car"—which won its only race before being withdrawn—in-race refuelling, carbon brakes, and hydropneumatic suspension. The team won two more Formula One drivers' championships in the 1980s with Brazilian Nelson Piquet, and became the first to win a drivers' championship with a turbocharged car. British businessman Bernie Ecclestone owned Brabham during most of the 1970s and 1980s, and later became responsible for administering the commercial aspects of Formula One. Ecclestone sold the team in 1988. Its last owner was the Middlebridge Group, a Japanese engineering firm. Midway through the 1992 season, the team collapsed financially as Middlebridge was unable to make repayments against loans provided by Landhurst Leasing.

The race set numerous records, including the records of both the longest Grand Prix, in relation to time elapsed, and slowest, in relation to average speed, since the World Championship began in 1950.

Article of the month – 1995 Brazilian Grand Prix; promoted to WP:GA quality The 1995 Brazilian Grand Prix (formally the XXIV Grande Prêmio do Brasil) was a Formula One motor race held on March 26, 1995 at the Autódromo José Carlos Pace, São Paulo, Brazil. It was the first round of the 1995 Formula One season. The race, contested over 71 laps, was won by Michael Schumacher for the Benetton team after starting from second position. David Coulthard finished second in a Williams, with Gerhard Berger third in a Ferrari. Damon Hill, who started the race from pole position, spun out while leading on lap 30 with an apparent gearbox problem, which was later found to be a suspension failure. Schumacher's win came despite Benetton encountering steering problems with his car during Friday practice, leading to him crashing heavily and necessitating steering component changes for the rest of the event. Despite Schumacher's victory, Hill proved to be faster during the race, and seemed to be on course for a comfortable victory before his sudden retirement. Other notable performances came from Berger, who took the final podium position despite being delayed during one of his routine pit stops due to a problem with a loose wheel nut; Mika Häkkinen, who finished fourth for the McLaren team despite its new car proving to be uncompetitive in pre-season testing; and Mika Salo, who drove strongly in the first half of the race to run third in his first Grand Prix for the Tyrrell team, only to suffer from cramp and drop back to seventh place at the finish. Behind Häkkinen, the other points-scoring finishers were Jean Alesi in the second Ferrari and Mark Blundell, who drove the second McLaren. Blundell was standing in for regular driver Nigel Mansell in the second McLaren until the team could produce a wider chassis in which to accommodate him, as the car's initial cockpit design had proved to be too narrow for him to drive comfortably. Several hours after the conclusion of the race, Schumacher and Coulthard were excluded from the race result as the chemical "fingerprint" of fuel samples from their cars taken after qualifying and the race did not match the specified sample lodged with the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA) prior to the event. Berger was thus declared the winner, but the race stewards' decision to exclude them was overturned at an appeal hearing on April 13. Schumacher and Coulthard were reinstated in first and second places respectively, but the two teams did not receive their respective constructors' points. The Ferrari team was unhappy with the decision made at the appeal hearing; Berger called the sport "a joke". The rule concerning the legality of fuels had been changed for the 1995 season, as had the new standardised equipment used for refuelling during the race, the drivers' weighing-in procedure and the conditions of the drivers' racing licences; all of these changes produced controversies which at times threatened to overshadow the race, as did the excessively bumpy condition of the track. The race also marked the first Brazilian Grand Prix to take place since the death of Brazilian triple World Champion Ayrton Senna the previous year; his passing was commemorated in various ways throughout the event.

Le Mans Serie 2011

The system you use is imprecise: 0 for drivers who failed to score: must be splitted between

0 drivers who finished classified but failed to score

NC drivers not classified

DNS drivers who participated to testing but did not start like the RML drivers in Spa this year

In order to be fully precise the following could be used also

DSQ for disqualified

DNA must be used for drivers who were on the entry list but did not attend

DNE must be for drivers who were not on the entry list

Article of the month – 2011 British Grand Prix The 2011 British Grand Prix was a Formula One motor race, held on 10 July 2011, at the Silverstone Circuit in Northamptonshire and Buckinghamshire, England, and won by Fernando Alonso. Changes to the circuit mean that the race was previously classified as being in Northamptonshire, but the movement of the start-finish line means that the race is now officially classed as being in Buckinghamshire. It was the ninth race of the 2011 season, and saw the introduction of a ban on off-throttle blown diffusers, the practice of forcing the engine to continue to produce exhaust gasses to generate downforce when drivers are not using the throttle.

Re:FIA GT1 query

I'm struggling to find a cause for it myself. Looking at the media site, there does seem to be a bit of misplacement on the points, notably with Michaël Rossi's points being in two separate rows from his actual row on 17 points. Can't find anything relating to the teams' championship on the Marc VDS page, so I'm at a bit of a loose end. If I do find something, I'll get back to you, but as it stands, we'll probably have to wait for any possible changes on both sites... Cs-wolves(talk) 13:44, 13 September 2011 (UTC)

Well, I'm completely flummoxed. Beijing preview has 112 points for Marc VDS, but I imagine it's just an error on SRO's part. I suppose when the San Luis preview comes out – that said, it won't feel right to have this go unresolved until November! – we can put it to rest. Sorry I couldn't be of more help... Cs-wolves(talk) 23:02, 13 September 2011 (UTC)

Yeah, I noticed that tally on the FIA website...I suppose the only option to get an immediate clarification about it, would be to email somebody at SRO. I'm just thinking out aloud with that one, because there's no guarantee of getting a positive response from there, as the person that you'd be emailing may not even know if it is a mistake or not. Although from past experience of looking at the GT3 site, there are a lot of errors that are eventually clarified, so we may have just picked up on a person's mistake at SRO and they just haven't realised yet! Cs-wolves(talk) 23:25, 13 September 2011 (UTC)

Turns out it was an SRO error after all. Back to the 124 tally as we suggested, and amended in the season article while I was sticking the San Luis Q-Race result in. Craig(talk) 18:35, 5 November 2011 (UTC)

Yeah, the GT1 site has been having a mind of its own this weekend. I've still got the Blancpain timing link up, so I'll have a look at the PDF file when that pops up. I think the results are final but I do remember hearing that one of the Sumo Nissans (think it was the Catsburg car) was under investigation for a first lap incident.

It wasn't until after yesterday's race that I noticed it; soon as it said 124, checked the media site and the points were there. I'll get the points up after I've had a bite to eat. Shouldn't be more than an hour to eat and complete the table! Craig(talk) 18:23, 6 November 2011 (UTC)

I thought Lux should have lost, but the first ALMS post race release did not break the tie. Guess they are across the board slow clarifying their results. --Falcadore (talk) 08:57, 3 October 2011 (UTC)

Article of the month – 2011 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix The 2011 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix (formally the Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix) was the eighteenth and penultimate round of the 2011 Formula One season. It was held on 13 November 2011 at the Yas Marina Circuit on Yas Island, a man-made island on the outskirts of Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates. It was the third running of the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. As is customary with the race, it was the only twilight Grand Prix of the 2011 Formula One season, with a start time of 17:00 local time. The race was won by McLaren's Lewis Hamilton. Second was Ferrari's Fernando Alonso, with Jenson Button coming third in the other McLaren. Sebastian Vettel, in a Red Bull-Renault, had been in pole position, but retired after a puncture in the first lap, near the second corner, which was his first retirement since the 2010 Korean Grand Prix, where he encountered a problem, with his engine. As a result, this prevented him from equalling Michael Schumacher's record of 13 wins in one season, but Vettel did equal Nigel Mansell's 1992 record of 14 pole positions in one season. This was also the first race of 2011 in which neither Red Bull finished on the podium, as Vettel's team-mate Mark Webber finished fourth. (More...)

Caterham change

I believe that User:Vvipkho's changes to the Lotus/Caterham pages were correct in light of today's rebranding of the team. I have brought the matter up at Talk:Team Lotus (current)#Caterham change for people to discuss. Regards - mspete93 13:35, 14 December 2011 (UTC)

GT/WEC pages

You do what you think is best - but I do believe having the tables are important, and will have to be included sooner or later. It's much easier to find that information visually. So maybe a combination of table and prose rather than table and bullet points will work best. I might go in and tinker with the wording once you're done (I found some of the wording on the GT page in particular to be awkward, especially with the team entires), but I won't change anything back.

Article of the month – Hispania F110, current Good Article nominee The Hispania F110 is a Formula One motor racing car designed and built by Dallara for Hispania Racing, for the 2010 season. It was driven by Karun Chandhok, Bruno Senna, Christian Klien and Sakon Yamamoto and was unveiled in Murcia, Spain, on 4 March 2010. The car used a Cosworth engine throughout the course of the 2010 season, of which it competed in every race with two of the four drivers who raced it. The team scored no points with the car during the season, and gained a highest result of fourteenth place. This was scored by both Chandhok and Senna, and meant that the team were placed eleventh and second-last in the 2010 World Constructors' Championship standings. The car gained no title sponsor from the team, and the car was never developed. Hispania's successor for their 2011 season campaign, the F111, was largely based upon the F110. (More...)
