Rates[edit]

Is there data on number of participants, so we can calculate the risk per participant per year? — Omegatron (talk) 02:33, 25 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, assuming you're talking about GP racing - this is going to be quite hard to calculate because participants varied a lot from race to race for most of GP racing's history, and before the 1970s or so you're going to struggle to find reliable data outside of the 500cc class. Probably not worth going into overall. SunflowerYuri (talk) 13:57, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

MotoGP/World Grand Prix Motorcycling Championship - By circuit - TT Circuit Assen[edit]

I found a discrepancy between the detail (main) table and the summary table:

TT Circuit Assen: 7 times by circuit while 6 times in the main table (1957, 1960, 1962, 1964, 1966, 1975)

You're correct, and top marks for an excellent observation! It looks like some old vandalism that slipped through the net. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Rider_deaths_in_motorcycle_racing&type=revision&diff=584105208&oldid=584104975. Readro (talk) 17:40, 11 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Formatting issues[edit]

Having two portraits at the start of the article with a lot of blank space on the left breaks the article's flow, should Simoncelli's pic be moved to the bottom of the first table maybe? SunflowerYuri (talk) 13:01, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
