[edit]Edmond Wilhelm Brillant Thx - Fttxguru (talk) 17:27, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
- Right, here I go.
- If you don't know how to add sources (which you really need to do in the article, just clumping some up at the bottom doesn't always make the cut), read this article - WP:CITE#HOW
- The writing style itself isn't very fluid. You keep repeating information which has already been said before. For some pointers on how to patch all of this up, read this article - Wikipedia:Your first article
- Do not use abbreviated terminology without giving the full name of the organization/person/whatever beforehand. Instead of simply saying "he joined the IDF", you should say "he joined the Israel Defence Forces (IDF)." The latter format means that you can just use 'IDF' whenever you want to refer to the Israel Defence Forces again, without having to spell the whole thing out. However, bear in mind that some parties such as the Royal Navy cannot be shortened to a few letters such as 'RN'. You should always write out these groups in full.
- When providing wiki-links, check before whether the page exists and/or how you can make the link more direct. Instead of putting something like the "U.S." for example, say instead "United States" so the link doesn't have to have a small re-directed caption. (makes your article and Wikipedia look more professional)
- Thats all for now. If you have any further questions, don't hesitate to drop me a note. Regards, ayrton_prost 19:42, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
RE: Thanks a lot
[edit]Once again, you are certainly welcome and thanks for the barnstar! :)

- Enjoy ^_^ ayrton_prost 19:01, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
Thanks!
[edit]Thanks very much, I really appreciate it. I was a bit worried because it must have looked like I was just charging around reverting your edits, and I didn't want to annoy you! I'm a bit of a grammar freak as well as an F1 nut, so I can get a bit irritating at times. Keep up the good work :) Bretonbanquet (talk) 13:17, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
- Haha, well I was initially surprised how you did manage to track down all my initial inputs. Don't worry though, I'm glad you patched most of them up. I was in a real hurry to get it out of the way before doing some work, and your tweaks here and there were very welcome. ayrton_prost 16:42, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
- Hehe well if an article has anything to do with F1, it'll be on my watchlist, so it pops up every time someone makes an edit. After races there's always a real scramble to update everything, and people often miss things or there are typos etc, so there's always lots to do! Bretonbanquet (talk) 17:31, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
- Yeah, anticipation of the massive scramble is mainly why I tried to get some info in [first] as well. XD ayrton_prost 17:33, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

[edit]Hi Thx a lot for your help.
I appreciate the time you took and take for editting this value.
The citations and records are from Hebrew Wiki I enclosed where you may see genuine documents and photos, even tough you cannot read Hebrew you can see the docs and photos, some are in English from RN, some are in French from SS Shalom mission Brillant was. Others are from Navy commander in chief, Hagana etc. My goal is to convert them all to English version.
All metarial is also in the Hagana Archive Brillnat File Tel Aviv and IDF Archive Brillnat File

Fttxguru (talk) 06:43, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
- That's cool. I understand you listed all the sources at the end there, and good job too. However, as I said on the talk page of the article, that always isn't enough for more uptight editors. They want to be assured the info you have in there is referenced on the spot. So, all you have to do is take the same links you left on the page, and simply connect them up to bits in the article where they correspond using the citation guide I provided. I understand that'll take a lot of work, but the whole article will look far more proffessional and reliable as a result. For the time being then, just leave a note on the talk page that you're trying to sort all this out. As for me, I'll put a message at the top of the article explaining what is going on (using a 'cover-up' code, the message can only be seen when in the edit page format).
- If your still unclear on anything I just said (I wouldn't be surprised if you were, I'm doing this all in a hurry), then please say so. Regards, ayrton_prost 10:34, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
Hi
Thx again
I wonder if you can create the citation indexing I left numbers in parenthesis to match each citation
Thx
Fttxguru (talk) 05:52, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
- I'm quite busy dealing with various WP:F1 tasks, so I'll quickly show you how it's done.
<ref>Author, name of book, page number(s) if necessary</ref>If you are citing from a web page, do this ->
</ref>{{cite web|url=address of the web page goes here|title=name of the article goes here|publisher=whoever published the material is named here|date=when the web page was first published goes here|accessdate=the date when you added the contents to the wiki article goes here}}</ref>At the end of the page after all of this, add a
{{reflist}}or
<references/>tag beneath the
==References==section so the citations will be visible for all to see in the proper format. Before doing this though, remove all the links you've already put there.
- When you have to cite information which comes later on in the article to a reference which has already been used beforehand, instead of repeating the above format, do the following ->
<ref name=insert title of the respective citation which has been used beforehand here/>
- Sorry for coming across are lazy, but I'm afraid my to-do list is crammed up as it is at the moment. I hope I've explained the processes clearly enough to you. Hey, at the end of the day, I guess if you do all this yourself the experience will come in handy for future situations. ayrton_prost 10:15, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
Again thx a lot

Article of the month - 2008 German Grand Prix, current Good Article Candidate.
![]() The 2008 German Grand Prix (formally the LXVIII Großer Preis Santander von Deutschland) was a Formula One motor race held on July 20, 2008 at the Hockenheimring, Hockenheim, Germany. It was the 10th race of the 2008 Formula One season. The race, contested over 67 laps, was won by Lewis Hamilton for the McLaren team after starting from pole position. Nelson Piquet, Jr. finished second in a Renault car, with Felipe Massa third in a Ferrari. Hamilton maintained his startline advantage and led until he made his first pit stop on lap 18. As other cars made their pit stops, Hamilton regained the lead on lap 22. On lap 36 Timo Glock crashed, and the race was neutralized by the deployment of the safety car. Hamilton, on a two-stop strategy, did not stop to get more fuel during this period, while all the cars around him did. Thus when he did eventually stop on lap 50, he rejoined the race in fifth. In the closing stages of the race, Hamilton overtook first his team-mate Heikki Kovalainen, then Massa, and finally Piquet, to take the lead again on lap 60, which he maintained to win the race. The victory was Hamilton's second consecutive win, having won the preceding British Grand Prix at Silverstone. The win put him ahead of his two main rivals in the Drivers' Championship, Kimi Räikkönen (who finished sixth) and Massa of Ferrari, who were on equal points with him before the race. After the race he was four points ahead of Räikkönen, and seven ahead of Massa. In the Constructors' Championship, McLaren drew closer to the two teams ahead of them, BMW Sauber and Ferrari. Ferrari still led by 15 points from McLaren, and 12 from BMW, whose drivers – Nick Heidfeld and Robert Kubica – finished fourth and seventh respectively.

Warning vandals
[edit]No problem, I normally do, don't know if that was a problem with huggle (it does sometimes not warn users) or if I just reverted by accident and forgot to warn. Anyways, thanks for letting me know. Cheers - Kingpin13 (talk) 14:48, 7 April 2009 (UTC)

- /facepalm, lol, sorry about that. I actually asked myself whether I had signed beforehand as BE, but when I did a [super-quick] scroll down, I didn't spot out my old signature. Ach, removed entry number 53 anyway though. But hey, while you're here, how you doing? Ayrton Prostsign 15:58, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
- NO! Don't remove it. Why not have it twice? I'm going to put it back! I'm fine thanks, not really doing much except Huggling. See ya! Oliver Fury, Esq. message • contributions 16:49, 7 April 2009 (UTC)

DYK for 2009 Malaysian Grand Prix
[edit]- I think that particular entry could have stated a more interesting fact like "it was the fifth race in F1 history to have half-points awarded", but whatever. I'm glad to see it came up anywho. Ayrton Prostsign 12:58, 10 April 2009 (UTC)
- The "half-points" hook was convoluted and more obscure to Wikipedia readers, which is why the other hook was chosen. Nice collaborative work on the article! Shubinator (talk) 22:08, 10 April 2009 (UTC)
- I see your point, and thanks, I was surprised to see how many people bent their backs over to bolster its bytes up as well. =) Ayrton Prostsign 09:43, 11 April 2009 (UTC)

Re: Soccer
[edit]"Americans" haven't been linking it to "soccer", the page was originally named Football (soccer) and stayed like that for 5 years, it was only changed to Association football after the 14th or 15th rename request late in 2007 and since we're advised against fixing links to redirects which aren't broken there are thousands of articles that still link to the original title. Nanonic (talk) 16:52, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
- Sorry, I'm just a really stressed at the moment, I don't know why I burst out like that. Apologies if I offended anyone. Ayrton Prostsign 16:55, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
- Don't worry about it, the whole naming thing is a real annoyance for everyone who works on football articles and we'd love to see it corrected everywhere but keep get thrown back by policies and other blocks. Nanonic (talk) 17:00, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
- I'm just waiting for the user Peejay (or anyone for that matter) to fill me in as to why a renaming of the 'Catergory:Football (soccer) terminology' to 'Catergory:Association football terminology' was rejected. If possible, I am going to bring back up this issue. Not only is it an annoyance as you pointed out, the whole affair also dents Wikipedia's image of proffessionalism. I think the conflicting titles just make the whole project look disorganized and indecisive. Pathetic, really. Ayrton Prostsign 17:04, 13 April 2009 (UTC)

Talk page archiving
[edit]You may not remember, but a while back you helped me with a archive template link. Due to my deep and apparently unalterable technical defficiency, it won't work. If you could take a look and give some pointers it would be appreciated. No hurry...and if you're busy I understand. See ya 'round. Tiderolls 00:23, 20 April 2009 (UTC)
- I'm no good with codes either, so I'll outline my method of archiving.
- Create a new page titled User talk:Tide rolls/archive [number goes here]
- Cut all the information from your current user talk, and paste it on the pre-created archive space.
- Then, last of all, leave a message at the top of the archive page [distinctly so it stands out] informing viewers of its nature. If you want a simple template for this, check out any of my archive pages and use the template set at the top of the page [in edit mode].
- Finally - this step is optional - link back to the archive page from your base talk page.
- It's all very easy, and works fine for me. AyrtonProst Pitwall 16:40, 20 April 2009 (UTC)

Article of the month - 2008 Bahrain Grand Prix, new Good Article
![]() The 2008 Bahrain Grand Prix (formally the V Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix) was a Formula One motor race held on April 6, 2008 at the Bahrain International Circuit, in Sakhir, Bahrain. It was the third race of the 2008 Formula One season. The race, contested over 57 laps, was won by Felipe Massa for the Ferrari team. Kimi Räikkönen was second in the other Ferrari, and BMW Sauber driver Robert Kubica was third. The race began with Kubica in pole position alongside Massa; Lewis Hamilton, the eventual Drivers' Champion, started from third, alongside Räikkönen. Kubica was passed by Massa into the first corner, and then by Räikkönen on the third lap. The Ferraris dominated at the front of the race, leading to their one-two finish. Hamilton had a slow start after almost stalling on the grid, and dropped back to ninth. The McLaren driver ran into the back of Fernando Alonso's Renault a lap later, breaking off the McLaren's front wing and dropping Hamilton to the back of the field. Kubica's strong finish promoted BMW Sauber to the lead in the Constructors' Championship, after BMW driver Nick Heidfeld finished fourth. Ferrari and McLaren trailed, one and two points behind, respectively. Räikkönen took the lead in the Drivers' Championship, with 19 points, three points ahead of Heidfeld and five ahead of Hamilton, Kubica and Kovalainen, with 15 races remaining in the season.

Your username
[edit]Nice one, just noticed it. But OMG, how could you possibly combine the two, that has to be against a law somewhere. :) There is only one greatest F1 driver ever, look at how Senna drove in the rain (and I do have direct experience with how much rain can fall on the grandstands of an F1 track, as I recall Senna ran out of fuel on the last lap too and we all went nuts) (Oh yes, what about the race where he never made a single pit-stop?). I propose pistols at dawn. ;) Franamax (talk) 21:38, 23 May 2009 (UTC)
- Hahaha, I am so awesome so stuff like this just happens. =p
- I never had the privilege of ever seeing Senna race, as I was born a year before he was killed, but all my respect comes from the tons I've read about him through personal research. His rivalry with Prost was just insane, and it makes me laugh what a big deal people made over Lewis and Fernando back in '07. Thinking about it, I picture Senna at his prime as just a cooler version of Schumacher - who for the record is a simply phenomenal individual in his own right. XD AyrtonProst Pitwall 15:46, 26 August 2009 (UTC)
Dinosaur names
[edit]Hi Ayrton,
Thanks for your recent contributions to several dinosaur articles. Regarding this fix, I've reverted it, as "Sauropoda dinosaur" is not correct grammar. Supersaurus is a sauropod dinosaur, not a Sauropoda dinosaur. I realize that you probably wanted to avoid the redirect, but we're encouraged not to do that anyway.
I've noticed you're also adding italics to dinosaur names. Per Wikipedia:DINO#Dinosaur_taxa_naming_conventions, they get italics if they're scientific names (Apatosaurus, Diplodocus, Brontosaurus, etc) but don't if they're common names (apatosaur, brontosaur, etc.)
Hope this helps. :) Best wishes and happy editing, Firsfron of Ronchester 08:41, 25 May 2009 (UTC)
- Hey Ayrton,
- The line breaks you've placed here will be removed automatically the next time a WP:AWB edit is made. Best, Firsfron of Ronchester 09:01, 25 May 2009 (UTC)
- Heya Ayrton,
- Just saw that you added your name to WP:DINO. Welcome aboard. :) Firsfron of Ronchester 20:55, 25 May 2009 (UTC)
- Oh man, I'm so sorry about that. Guess it's just a part of my learning curve, apologies once more. I'll make sure it won't happen again. Thanks for your time though. :-) AyrtonProst Pitwall 15:49, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

Article of the month - 2008 Turkish Grand Prix, new Good Article
![]() The 2008 Turkish Grand Prix (formally the IV Petrol Ofisi Turkish Grand Prix) was a Formula One motor race held on May 11, 2008 at the Istanbul Racing Circuit, Istanbul, Turkey. It was the fifth race of the 2008 Formula One season. The race, contested over 58 laps, was won by Felipe Massa for the Ferrari team after starting from pole position. Lewis Hamilton finished second in a McLaren, with Kimi Räikkönen third in the second Ferrari. Massa claimed pole, with teammate Räikkönen fourth, the two Ferrari cars sandwiching the McLarens of Heikki Kovalainen and Hamilton. At the first corner Räikkönen clipped Kovalainen's rear tyre and gave him a puncture. The safety car was deployed on the first lap, after a collision, but only remained out for one lap. During the course of the race, Hamilton, intending to make one more pit stop than both Ferrari drivers, was faster than Massa due to carrying a lighter fuel load and overtook him on lap 24. After Hamilton had made his third pit stop, he rejoined in second behind Massa but in front of the Championship leader, Räikkönen. Massa won the race, with Hamilton 3.779 seconds behind, and Räikkönen a further half-second behind. The two BMW Sauber cars of Robert Kubica and Nick Heidfeld took fourth and fifth. In the week running up to the grand prix, the Super Aguri team had withdrawn from Formula One, due to financial problems, leaving the sport with only ten teams. Massa's victory was his third consecutive pole position and victory in Turkey, having also won the race from pole in 2006 and 2007. This was also Rubens Barrichello's 257th Grand Prix start, breaking Riccardo Patrese's previous record of 256. Due to the race result, Räikkönen's lead in the Drivers' Championship was lowered to seven points. Massa rose to second from fourth, whilst Hamilton dropped to third, both drivers tying on 28 points but separated by Massa's two wins thus far to Hamilton's one. In the Constructors' Championship, Ferrari increased their lead to 22 points ahead of BMW Sauber, with McLaren a further two points behind in third.

Request to participate in University of Washington survey on tool to quickly understand Wikipedians’ reputations
[edit]Hello. I'm part of a research group at the University of Washington. In April, we met with some local Wikipedians to learn what they would like to know about other editors’ history and activities (within Wikipedia) when interacting with them on talk pages. The goal of those sessions was to gather feedback to help design an embedded application that could quickly communicate useful information about other Wikipedians. We have now created a few images that we feel represent some of what our participants thought was important. We would appreciate it if you took a few minutes of your time to complete an online survey that investigates whether or not these images would be useful to you. Your quick contribution would be very valuable to our research group and ultimately to Wikipedia. (When finished, the code for this application will be given over to the Wikipedia community to use and/or adjust as they see fit.)
Willing to spend a few minutes taking our survey? Click this link.
Please feel free to share the link with other Wikipedians. The more feedback, the better! The survey is completely anonymous and takes less than 10 minutes to complete. All data is used for university research purposes only.
Thank you for your time! If you have any questions about our research or research group, please visit our user page. Commprac01 (talk) 21:19, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

Article of the month - 2008 Monaco Grand Prix, new Featured Article
![]() The 2008 Monaco Grand Prix (formally the LXVI Grand Prix de Monaco) was a Formula One motor race held on May 25, 2008 at the Circuit de Monaco; contested over 76 laps, it was the sixth race of the 2008 Formula One season. The race was won by the season's eventual Drivers' Champion, Lewis Hamilton, for the McLaren team. BMW Sauber driver Robert Kubica finished second, and Felipe Massa, who started from pole position, was third in a Ferrari. Conditions were wet at the start of the race. Massa maintained his lead into the first corner, but his teammate Kimi Räikkönen was passed for second by Hamilton, who had started in third position on the grid. Hamilton suffered a punctured tyre on lap six, forcing him to make a pit stop from which he re-entered the race in fifth place. As the track dried and his rivals made their own pit stops Hamilton became the race leader, a position he held until the end of the race. Kubica's strategy allowed him to pass Massa during their second pit stops, after the latter's Ferrari was forced to change from wet to dry tyres. Räikkönen dropped back from fifth position to ninth after colliding with Adrian Sutil's Force India late in the race. Sutil had started from 18th on the grid and was in fourth position before the incident, which allowed Red Bull driver Mark Webber to finish fourth, ahead of Toro Rosso driver Sebastian Vettel in fifth. The race was Hamilton's second win of the season, his first in Monaco, and the result meant that he led the Drivers' Championship, seven points ahead of Räikkönen and eight ahead of Massa. Ferrari maintained their lead in the Constructors' Championship, 16 points ahead of McLaren and 17 ahead of BMW Sauber, with 12 races of the season remaining.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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. The Ferrari's engine, however, failed with three laps of the race remaining, allowing Kovalainen to take the win.

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.

Article of the month – Bruce McLaren, current Start-Class article.
![]() Bruce Leslie McLaren (30 August 1937 – 2 June 1970), born in Auckland, New Zealand, was a race-car designer, driver, engineer and inventor. His name lives on in the McLaren team which has been one of the most successful in Formula One championship history, with McLaren cars and drivers winning a total of 20 world championships. McLaren cars totally dominated CanAm sports car racing with 56 wins, a considerable number of them with him behind the wheel, between 1967 and 1972 (and five constructors’ championships), and have won three Indianapolis 500 races, as well as 24 Hours of Le Mans and 12 Hours of Sebring. As a nine year old, McLaren contracted Perthes disease in his hip which left his left leg shorter than the right. He spent two years in traction, but later often had a slight limp. Les and Ruth McLaren, his parents, owned a service station and workshop in Remuera, Auckland. Bruce spent all of his free hours hanging around the workshop. The McLaren family homestead is located in Ngaruawahia in the Northern Waikato region and still stands today.

Article of the month – McLaren M2B, new Good Article.
![]() The McLaren M2B was the McLaren team's first Formula One racing car, used during the 1966 season. It was conceived in 1965 and preceded by the M2A development car. Designed by Robin Herd, the innovative but problematic Mallite material was used in its construction. The car was powered by Ford and Serenissima engines but both lacked power and suffered from reliability issues. Driven by team founder Bruce McLaren, the M2B had a short Grand Prix career, entering six races and starting only four. It scored the team's first point at the British Grand Prix and two more points at the United States Grand Prix.

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.

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.
