Article of the month - 2008 French Grand Prix, current Good Article nominee.
![]() The 2008 French Grand Prix (formally the XCIII Grand Prix de France) was a Formula One motor race held on June 22, 2008 at the Circuit de Nevers Magny-Cours, France. It was the eighth race of the 2008 Formula One season. The race, contested over 70 laps, was won by Felipe Massa for the Ferrari team after starting from second position. Kimi Räikkönen, who started from pole position, finished second in the other Ferrari car; Jarno Trulli was third in a Toyota. Räikkönen and Massa both made a clean start. Renault's Fernando Alonso, who started third, was overtaken by Trulli and BMW Sauber driver Robert Kubica. The front three of Räikkönen, Massa and Trulli maintained their positions through the first round of pit stops. On lap 30, Räikkönen led Massa by six and a half seconds, and Trulli by 30 seconds. Just before half distance, Räikkönen's right exhaust pipe broke, which caused the engine to lose power. Massa, in second place, began lapping quicker than Räikkönen, and he caught and passed him on lap 39. Massa maintained his lead through the second round of pit stops, and won the race; Räikkönen finished almost 18 seconds behind. Trulli fended off McLaren's Heikki Kovalainen, who challenged him in the latter stages, to take third. Massa's win promoted him into the lead of the Drivers' Championship for the first time in his career, overtaking Kubica. Kubica was second, two points behind Massa, while Räikkönen was third. In the Constructors' Championship, Ferrari increased their lead to 17 points ahead of BMW Sauber, McLaren a further 16 points behind in third.

Good article review
Thanks for sorting out the lead issue in the good article review of the 2008 French Grand Prix. Another GA towards the Insane Idea! Darth Newdar talk 07:42, 9 August 2009 (UTC)
Rudolf Caracciola
You did a great job, so I didn't need to comment. (Maybe I should start saying stuff like that in review pages? I've been reluctant to clutter reviews, but a one-liner saying "looks good" might not go amiss.) I wish all editors shared your enthusiasm and ability for this stuff; currently some are objecting strongly in Wikipedia talk:Featured article candidates to the idea that featured article images should have alt text. Eubulides (talk) 07:15, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
Caracciola
I'll have a look - as ever, there may be a short delay...Hope it goes well. 4u1e (talk) 08:34, 16 August 2009 (UTC)
- Nothing really in that edition - there are obits for Karl Kling and Manfred von Brauchitsch with a mention of the latter taking a victory 'meant' for Caracciola. I'll scan through some others, perhaps the year is wrong. 4u1e (talk) 16:31, 16 August 2009 (UTC)
- Ah, I see. It's von Brauchistch's obit that's being picked up. 4u1e (talk) 06:08, 17 August 2009 (UTC)
Thanks
Am I stupid or what... thanks a lot for this Apterygial. ≈ Chamal talk ¤ 11:47, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
- No worries. Must be something to do with how the preload works. Apterygial 11:53, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
You're welcome
No problem on the FA review for Wikipedia:Featured_article_candidates/Rudolf_Caracciola/archive1. I feel I was able to provide an objective opinion since I'm not familiar with Grand Prix from that era (or even ones now in Formula 1 since I'm not an F1 fan). The only time that I followed F1 was around when Senna died. I was planning to ask you for a peer review on a featured list that I'm helping to finish up now; I'll ask you when we're done. I do have a GA that failed at FA and I was wondering what your opinion would be about a second go at FA. Would you do a FA-level peer review for Alan Kulwicki and place the review in a section on the talk page? I've done a little editing but not much since the failed FAC in May 2008. It's definitely no rush, take weeks or months if you need! Royalbroil 02:22, 21 August 2009 (UTC)
- We've prepared List of Daytona 500 pole position winners as far as we can. Would you please peer review it at the Featured List level? I would like to nominate it in about a week and I might ask someone else to review it. Royalbroil 04:49, 25 August 2009 (UTC)

Article of the month - Brabham BT46, current Good Article, after reassessment.
![]() The Brabham BT46 was a Formula One racing car, designed by Gordon Murray for the Brabham team, owned by Bernie Ecclestone, for the 1978 Formula One season. The car featured several radical design elements, the most obvious of which was the use of flat panel heat exchangers on the bodywork of the car to replace conventional water and oil radiators. The concept did not work in practice and was removed before the car’s race debut, never to be seen again. The cars, powered by a flat-12 Alfa Romeo engine, raced competitively with modified nose-mounted radiators for most of the year, driven by Niki Lauda and John Watson, winning one race in this form and scoring sufficient points for the team to finish third in the constructors championship. The "B" variant of the car, also known as the "fan car", was introduced at the 1978 Swedish Grand Prix as a counter to the dominant ground effect Lotus 79. The BT46B generated an immense level of downforce by means of a fan, claimed to be for increased cooling, but which also extracted air from beneath the car. The car only raced once in this configuration in the Formula One World Championship—when Niki Lauda won the 1978 Swedish Grand Prix at Anderstorp. The car was withdrawn before it could race again and the concept was declared illegal by the FIA. The BT46B therefore preserves a 100% winning record.

If uou have watched, seen or heard the practice session you would see it. It hasn't been on the news yet as it it so early in the morning. --Troggy3112 (talk) 06:31, 2 October 2009 (UTC)
- Then cite it to that. I'm assuming you are talking about the BBC coverage, which I don't have access to. Autosport is still saying he is simply resting before qualifying tommorrow, as is the BBC's website. Apterygial 06:36, 2 October 2009 (UTC)
I have left a list of improvements for the article on its talk page. A bit of rolling up the sleeves and getting to work is required, but it can be done. What images do you have from the race? That would be a definite help. Alex finds herself awake at night (Talk · What keeps her up) 03:10, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

Article of the month - 1995 British Grand Prix, currently listed for a Peer Review.
![]() The 1995 British Grand Prix (formally the XLVIII British Grand Prix) was a Formula One motor race held on July 16, 1995 at Silverstone Circuit, Silverstone, Northamptonshire, England. It was the eighth round of the 1995 Formula One season. The race, contested over 61 laps, was won by Johnny Herbert for the Benetton team after starting from fifth position. Jean Alesi finished second in a Ferrari, with David Coulthard third in a Williams car. Herbert's victory was his first in Formula One, and the Benetton team's fifth of the season. The race was dominated, however, by the fight between championship protagonists Michael Schumacher (Benetton) and Damon Hill (Williams). Hill, who started from pole position, retained his lead during the opening stages of the race whilst Schumacher, who started alongside him on the grid, fell behind Alesi in the run to the first corner. Despite being held up behind the slower Ferrari until it pitted, Schumacher used a more favourable one-stop strategy to move ahead of Hill, who made two pit stops for fuel and tyres, on lap 41. Four laps later, Hill attempted to pass Schumacher, but the two collided and were forced to retire from the race. This promoted the battling Herbert and Coulthard into the fight for the lead. Coulthard passed Herbert, but dropped back to third after incurring a stop-go penalty for speeding in the pit lane.

Article of the month - DAMS GD-01, current Peer Review nominee
The DAMS GD-01 was an unraced Formula One car used by the French motorsport team, Driot-Arnoux Motor Sport (DAMS). The GD-01 was designed and built by a collaboration of DAMS and Reynard engineers from 1994 to 1995, and was intended to establish the team—which had achieved considerable success in lower categories—in Formula One, but a continuing lack of finance meant that the team never entered the championship, despite completing construction of the chassis and conducting some testing.

Hey. Would you still consider this article to be GA quality? Seems lke it to me, but thought I' get a second opinion from someone more well versed in writing these sorts of articles. Wizardman 20:30, 18 November 2009 (UTC)
- Alright, thanks. I'm going through all the old GAs for WP:GA Sweeps, so I'll probably reassess it shortly (got 4u1e working on another article;don't want to review all the F1 article at once and overburden the project). Wizardman 00:15, 19 November 2009 (UTC)
Thankyou. Great work on F1! Also, I think "tourists" is alright as it's used in FA cricket articles. I'll get to work soon. Thanks again. Aaroncrick (talk) Review me!
- "Tourists" is probably passable, after all it literally means "those who tour", but I'm not super keen on its use, and when it's just as easy to specify the team name, you may as well do so. Apterygial 05:01, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

Lang
Well, he's certainly not a bona fide champion as Caracciola was. What about leaving the 1939 title as not having been awarded? That is factually correct.
And regarding Rosemeyer, I can only plead insanity. I know he was an Auto Union man and I can't explain his inclusion! Readro (talk) 23:53, 20 November 2009 (UTC)

Article of the month - Fittipaldi Automotive, current Good Article Review
![]() Fittipaldi Automotive, sometimes called Copersucar after its first major sponsor, was the only Formula One motor racing team and constructor ever to be based in Brazil. It was formed during 1974 by racing driver Wilson Fittipaldi and his younger brother, double world champion Emerson, with money from the Brazilian sugar and alcohol cooperative Copersucar. In 1976 Emerson surprised the motor racing world by leaving the title-winning McLaren team to drive for the unsuccessful family outfit. Future world champion Keke Rosberg took his first podium finish in Formula One with the team. The team was based in São Paulo, almost 6,000 miles (10,000 km) away from the centre of the world motor racing industry in the UK, before moving to Reading, UK during 1974. It participated in 119 grands prix between 1975 and 1982, entering a total of 156 cars. It achieved 3 podiums and scored 44 championship points.

Article of the month - 2008 Hungarian Grand Prix, current Peer Review candidate.
![]() The 2008 Hungarian Grand Prix (formally the XXIII ING Magyar Nagydíj) was a Formula One motor race held on August 3, 2008 at the Hungaroring, Budapest, Hungary. It was the eleventh race of the 2008 Formula One season. The race, contested over 70 laps, was won by Heikki Kovalainen for the McLaren team after starting from second position. 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 it was also 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 into 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. The Ferrari's engine, however, failed with three laps of the race remaining, allowing Kovalainen to take the win.
