Article of the month -
Featured Article The 1995 Pacific Grand Prix (formally the II Pacific Grand Prix) was a Williams car, with Damon Hill third in the other Williams. Schumacher's win confirmed him as 1995 Drivers' Champion as Hill could not pass Schumacher's points total with only two races remaining.
Hill started the race alongside Coulthard on the front row, amidst pressure from the British media for not being "forceful" enough in battles. Schumacher attempted to drive around the outside of Hill at the first corner, but Hill held Schumacher off as slick tyres , to close on Coulthard who was on a two-stop strategy. Schumacher opened up a gap of 21 seconds by lapping two seconds faster per lap than Coulthard, so that when his third stop came, he still led the race.

Graeme Wight, Jr.
I'm guessing this was a Manual of Style change? I only ask because virtually all the literature I have that mentions him (event programmes and so on) uses the unpunctuated form of his name, as does the top12runoff website. I have no problems at all with the change, and certainly have no intention of changing it back, but I did find "should be written like that" a little strong given what I've just said. Loganberry (Talk) 23:02, 11 October 2008 (UTC)
- If one were being mischievous, one might say that "how a name is written" is defined in the end by how its owner wants it to be written (see The Artist Formerly Known as Prince)! But I'm being deliberately silly here. And no, of course you didn't cause any offence: I'm sorry if I gave that impression. Loganberry (Talk) 23:30, 11 October 2008 (UTC)
Hillclimb infoboxes
Thanks for adding those; they definitely add to the articles. Is it possible, though, to customise them a little bit? "Lap record" is clearly incorrect for a non-circuit course, while it also seems anomalous to have the course length in km and miles but not in the "British hillclimbing standard" of yards. I could always go and ask about this at WP:MOTOR, of course, but thought it best to ask you first. Loganberry (Talk) 23:32, 17 October 2008 (UTC)
- Okay; fine. I must admit that infobox coding is very far from being a specialised subject of mine! I certainly think that they're better with than without, but at some point I'll ask on the project and see whether the standard box can be modified suitably or whether we'll need to make our own for hillclimb courses. It's not just us, either: Santa Pod Raceway also looks strange with a "Lap Record" field! Loganberry (Talk) 23:41, 17 October 2008 (UTC)
- Looks very nice. I'm too tired to say more now, but thank you! Loganberry (Talk) 00:30, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

Article of the month -
Good Article Candidate The 2008 Belgian Grand Prix (formally the LXIV ING Belgian Grand Prix) was a 2008 Formula One season. The race, contested over 44 laps, was won by Felipe Massa for the Ferrari team, after the initial winner, McLaren driver Lewis Hamilton, was penalised for cutting a chicane and gaining an advantage over Ferrari's Kimi Räikkönen .
Hamilton started from BMW Sauber .
Hamilton received a drive-through penalty, which demoted him to third place and advanced Massa and Heidfeld to first and second positions. McLaren appealed the decision at the FIA International Court of Appeal. Their case, however, was judged inadmissible, with the Court ruling that drive-through penalties cannot be challenged. The penalty created a large amount of criticism from the global press, mainly from the United Kingdom and Italy, with several former drivers questioning the decision. Massa's retrospective win, with Hamilton demoted to third, narrowed the gap in the Championship from six points to just two.

Darts work
Hi cs-wolves,
The Original Barnstar | ||
I award you this barnstar for you hard work on many Darts related articles, particularly the tournaments |
Darts can be a hard topic to keep up to date because of the frequency of tournaments, and because so few contribute to it. I noticed particularly your help on
New Darts player form template & 2008 in darts help if poss?
Hi, I've just created a template called template: Darts player form which allows you to input the players results for the past 4 years. I've only added it to Phil Taylor's article for now. Take a look and see what you think. I won't really have time to edit all the top players and source the info, but I've posted this message on many users pages so it may be used.
In addition, I've not really had the time to update 2008 in darts which has been bereft of updates since around September. The Pro Tour results are also lacking updates. It may not be a page that continues with 2009 in darts if its not significant enough. Again, if you or any other user wants to take control of adding results then I'd really appreciate it. Seedybob (talk) 12:01, 27 November 2008 (UTC)
- Re comments.
- The other PDC tournaments can be added to the template pretty easily, if I get time I'll get round to it. Unfortunately I don't edit pages that often these days which is a pity. Seedybob (talk) 17:06, 27 November 2008 (UTC)
Anastasia's one-use walk-on
Hello,
I wish to contact you about your edit on Anastasia Dobromyslova regarding her use of Girls by Sugababes during the Grand Slam of Darts. Yes she did indeed use it, but on her third game she used a different walk-on, the same one she used during her first game which to be honest I don't what it is. For that reason as she only used it once, I feel that mentioning her use of Girls as a walk-on may be rendered "irrelevant". But I wanted to contact you about the issue first before I, or someone else for that matter, deleted it. Let me know on you thoughts or ideas regarding this topic. Cheers.

Good Article candidate.The 2008 Brazilian Grand Prix (formally the XXXVII Grande Prêmio Santander do Brasil) was a Renault, and Kimi Räikkönen third in a Ferrari.
Before the race, Drivers' Championship leader Lewis Hamilton had received heated criticism in the British press for his aggressive driving style at the Japanese Grand Prix three weeks previously. There, Hamilton's late braking at the first corner sent Räikkönen off the road and saw the McLaren driver relegated to the back of the field after a penalty. Massa started the race alongside Toyota driver Jarno Trulli. Massa's Ferrari team-mate Räikkönen began from third next to Hamilton. Rain fell minutes before the race, delaying the start, and as the track dried Massa established a lead of several seconds. More rain in the closing laps did not prevent Hamilton from finishing the race in fifth position, securing him the points needed to take the Championship.

Positions in F1 driver results tables
With regard to adding positions for drivers who did not score any points in F1 seasons up to about 2000-2001 - prior to that point, if a driver didn't score any points, he wasn't classified in the WDC, so these positions are erroneous. Generally they've been removed where added, but since you've added a lot of them, I thought I'd mention it. Bretonbanquet (talk) 17:40, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
- No problem - it's true that there's some of this kind of thing in the infoboxes and also in the season articles, but it's a matter of going through it all and sorting it out, which is a big job... We also need to pinpoint exactly when drivers who didn't score points became eligible for classification in the WDC, but so far we've had no luck. Some say 2000, some say 2001! Bretonbanquet (talk) 17:52, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
- That's interesting. Forix / Autosport says the first season for classifiying drivers with no points was 2000, so there doesn't seem to be a clear agreement on it! Hopefully we'll find something more solid soon. Bretonbanquet (talk) 18:38, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
- Sounds good to me - at least we know what we're doing prior to 2000 :o) Bretonbanquet (talk) 19:00, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
- That's true, and they really shouldn't. We can't apply today's rules to the past. It will be a big job, which is why I haven't tackled it yet... I'll probably start at some point, maybe with the season articles. Bretonbanquet (talk) 19:10, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

Article of the month -
Featured Article status after review.Damon Graham Devereux Hill OBE (born 17 September 1960) is a retired British racing driver from England. In 1996 Hill won the Formula One World Championship; as the son of the late Graham Hill, he is the only son of a world champion to win the title. His father died in a plane crash when Hill was 15, leaving the family in reduced circumstances and Hill came to professional motorsports at the relatively late age of 23 by racing motorcycles. After some minor success, he moved on to single-seater racing cars, and progressed steadily up the ranks to the International Formula 3000 championship by 1989, where although often competitive he never won a race. Hill became a test driver for the Formula One title-winning 1996 World Drivers' Championship, but was dropped by Williams for the following season. He went on to drive for the less competitive Arrows and Jordan teams, and in 1998 gave Jordan its first win.
Hill retired from racing after the 1999 season. He has since launched several businesses as well as making appearances playing the guitar with celebrity bands. In 2006, he became president of the British Racing Drivers' Club, succeeding Jackie Stewart.

Article of the month -
Featured List 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. The most famous Grand Prix is the Monaco Grand Prix in Monte Carlo. The results of each race are combined to determine two annual Championships, one for drivers and one for constructors .
Michael Schumacher holds the record for the most Grand Prix victories, having won 91 times. Alain Prost, is second with 51 wins, and Ayrton Senna is third, with 41 wins. Michael Schumacher holds the distinction of having the longest time between his first win and his last. He won his first Grand Prix in 1992 at the Belgian Grand Prix, and his last in 2006 at the Chinese Grand Prix, a gap that spans 14 years, 1 month and 1 day. The youngest winner of a Grand Prix is Sebastian Vettel, who was 21 years, 73 days old when he won the 2008 Italian Grand Prix. Luigi Fagioli is the oldest winner of a Formula One Grand Prix; he was 53 years and 22 days old when he won the 1951 French Grand Prix.

Article of the month - 2008 Chinese Grand Prix, new
Good Article The 2008 Chinese Grand Prix (formally the V Sinopec Chinese Grand Prix) was a 2008 Formula One season. The race, contested over 56 laps, was won by Lewis Hamilton for the McLaren team after starting from pole position. Ferrari driver Felipe Massa finished second, and Kimi Räikkönen was third in the other Ferrari.
Hamilton, the eventual points tally at the final race in Brazil .
The result extended Ferrari's lead over McLaren in the Constructors' Championship from seven to 11 points. Third-placed in the Drivers' Championship, Robert Kubica's sixth place at the Grand Prix eliminated his hopes of winning the Championship, and reduced his lead over fourth-placed Räikkönen to six points.

2009 WTCC Driver Table
While I think that the rounds column on the drivers table you added is a good idea, I think those entries that plan to do the whole season should just have 'all' in the rounds column. If any of these fail to compete at any round, this could be changed. I will go ahead and make these changes after the second race in Curitiba after which I know you will fill in the results and championship standings tables. Thanks -
- Just one question- When a new driver is announced, lets say next Wednesday for the Puebla event. If I want to enter him on the table, which I will, can I do the following:
