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 SĆ£o Paulo, almost 6,000Ā miles (10,000Ā 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 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 NagydĆj) was a Formula One motor race held on August 3, 2008 at the Hungaroring, Budapest, Hungary. It was the eleventhĀ race of the 2008 Formula One season. The race, contested over 70Ā 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 RƤikkƶnen 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 FĆ©dĆ©ration 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 elseā288 times in totalāas 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.

Talk archive navigation thingy
Kudos for finding such a nifty tool to go between the archives. On a complete tangent from that, you know how we have the GP2 Series drivers category, which incorporate both the main series and the Asia series...I was thinking about splitting them into two different categories but I wanted to ask you, mainly because it was you that stuck the note on it. So yeah! Cs-wolves(talk) 22:06, 7 February 2010 (UTC)
- I apologise for the lazy heading, I just couldn't think of anything else to describe it! Haha, glad to see we all have our lazy moments at one point! Ah good. Don't know if I'll do it right now, due to the Super Bowl but I'll probably get to it at somepoint. Timely reminder then, especially with the resurgence of DPR this past weekend. Cs-wolves(talk) 22:41, 7 February 2010 (UTC)
- Just to let you know that the category has been split, with 88 in the main category and 74 in the Asia category. Cs-wolves(talk) 19:29, 8 February 2010 (UTC)

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

Re: Chandhok
Yep, I am that. My initial concern was the wording of the F1 website's practice report which was "As expected, Karun Chandhokās car wasnāt ready for the final session but may be out for qualifying.", so I had to look into it and check the regulations. Sure enough, it came up trumps! Might have to reference the regs on the Grand Prix page, in case people get confused as to why Chandhok is still in the weekend!

Sauber merge
Do you think there's enough support for the Sauber merger now? It's very much a case of the 'established' F1 editors supporting it, and the rest opposing it, simply because "they are different teams and should have different articles", without realising that this case is a bit different. There are calls to merge Footwork/Arrows and Leyton House/March, but I know very little/nothing about these cases so I can't possibly comment. As for Sauber, I'm happy to do the merge, but I don't have the time to change all the links. I'm not saying you will either, it's just that the work will need to be shared around. Thanks - mspete93 23:28, 13 March 2010 (UTC)
- You're probably right about them changing the name. They'll probably have to sell the team Brawn-style once they use up the BMW money. Yeah I'm not worried about changing links, I just know that certain users are. - mspete93 09:12, 14 March 2010 (UTC)
- OK, thanks. I'm stupidly busy with coursework at the moment (which explains my delay in responding), but I can make a start from next Thursday. - mspete93 18:49, 27 March 2010 (UTC)
- That's fine by me. I'll have a look at it during the GP tomorrow morning, unless it provides gripping entertainment. :P - mspete93 19:57, 27 March 2010 (UTC)
- I managed to do some last evening at User:MotorsportPete93/Sandbox2. I see you are working on BMW in Formula One. I have one concern regarding the closing of the discussion, particularly as we've had an oppose this morning. I don't know that I can just say that we've decided to merge, particularly as I started the discussion. - mspete93 09:53, 28 March 2010 (UTC)

Hello again. How close are you to completing BMW in Formula One? I don't want to merge the two yet without BMW in Formula One being available for those who want it. - mspete93 17:13, 23 April 2010 (UTC)
- That's OK. Not much you can do about that really. I know how it feels trying to squeeze XIV around other commitments. Constant coursework has turned into constant revision for me. If you have got any editing time in the meantime it would be nice if it could be finished in a basic form so that the merge can go ahead. I can then work on expanding the Williams and Sauber sections until you can fully finish it. I'm not sure I have the knowledge to do the Williams section myself from scratch though. An alternative could be to create the article in a very brief form, outlining their history in F1, before moving your version in at a later date. Alternatively, I can just be patient! Your call really. It all looks really good at the moment though. - mspete93 19:18, 30 April 2010 (UTC)
Update: A user has now moved BMW Sauber to BMW in Formula One. I had a feeling this would happen, and to be totally honest, you can't really blame them. I'll complete the Sauber merge now, and then work on that version of BMW in F1 to get the basics across, and you can merge your version in at a later stage. Thanks - mspete93 10:05, 1 May 2010 (UTC)
- I've merged the articles and created an overview at BMW in Formula One, using your drafted intro as a guide. If you could add the results table and then expand on it over time. I don't want to undo your hard work by expanding on it myself too much. What I can do is do the bits you haven't done yet - Williams and Sauber - and then you can add the older bits when you're ready. No rush for that though. - mspete93 12:27, 1 May 2010 (UTC)
Re:2008 Hungarian Grand Prix
Yes, I do. If I was you I'd just do a quick prose run-through; the benefit of not having studied it for several months should mean you spot any mistakes/flow issues. It should also acquaint you well enough with the article that you can answer questions at FAC. I think it's pretty solid, and I'll help where I can, but uni's pretty hectic at the moment and it depends on when I can get away. Good luck, Apterygial 22:52, 14 March 2010 (UTC)

Article of the month - 2008 Hungarian Grand Prix, current Featured Article candidate.
The 2008 Hungarian Grand Prix (formally the XXIII ING Magyar NagydĆj) was a Formula One motor race held on August 3, 2008, at Hungaroring in MogyorĆ³d, 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 RƤikkƶnen 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.

How do you watch your signature?
Hi, Mr, Midgrid I've noted that you have a nice black and yellow signature. Might I ask you how you do it. (Wiki id2 (talk) 20:04, 24 April 2010 (UTC))
Canadian GP discussion
Hi, I'd like to tell you there is a discussion on the Candian Grand Prix. Please visit the talk page to participate in it. Thanks for the code. The signature works like a charm.(Wiki id2(talk) 18:18, 25 April 2010 (UTC))
Fair use rationale for File:AUTOCOURSE 2000 cover.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:AUTOCOURSE 2000 cover.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in XIV constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any XIV page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 09:08, 29 April 2010 (UTC)
