I will be happy to review this article. Comments will appear soon. Z105space (talk) 17:00, 4 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Background[edit]

  • There should be a mention of Pirelli being Formula One's sole tyre supplier.
 Done
  • "Constructors standings" - The world standings should be replace with championship which should be capitalised.
 Done

Regulation changes[edit]

  • Delink Daniel Ricciardo in this section as he is already linked in a another sentence in the main background sub-section.
Removed all repeat links (there were a couple more).

Lotus legal troubles[edit]

  • It would be helpful to explain who Bernie Ecclestone is to the general audience.
 Done

Free practice[edit]

  • "two 1.5-hour sessions on Friday and another one-hour session before qualifying on Saturday" - I feel the word 1.5-hour should be replaced by 90-minute.
 Done
  • "The session was stopped for ten minutes to repair the barriers." - Who repaired the barriers?
 Done
  • "separated by the Red Bulls" This should be amended to say "separated by the Red Bull drivers"/
 Done

Race[edit]

  • Wikilink is needed for Virtual Safety Car.
 Done
  • "a little less than two laps from the finish," - It's better remove the words "a little less".
 Done Removed "a little".
  • "Unharmed by his teammate in second" - The word Unharmed needs to be reworded to Unchallenged.
 Done

Post-race[edit]

  • "Vettel received additional support from former driver David Coulthard" - Should be written "Vettel received additional support from Coulthard" and you should place the words former driver to the first mention of Coulthard in the post-race subsection.
 Done
  • "ahead of the two Manor Marussias" - this should say "ahead of the two Manor Marussia drivers".
 Done
  • "He also called for immediate action considering the Italian Grand Prix" -It would read better if the word "considering" was replaced with "for".
I feel that "considering" is warranted, since it gives a causal connection between the fact that Monza is a high speed track and the dangers of tyre blowups at that track.

References[edit]

  • Reference 3 should have Formula1.com in the work field and the publisher should be Formula One Management not the FIA.
  • Same issue above with references 14, 15, 16.
 Done Replaced Publisher with "Formula One Digital Media Limited", the publisher named at Formula1.com
  • The Guardian should be italicised in all instances it is used as well as The Telegraph.
 Done
Nothing, I stopped using that site a while ago but did not get around to exchange all the instances I've used it at before. I have replaced it now with a link from f1technical, which I believe is a RS, but please check if you think so too, I'm not entirely sure.

I will put his on hold for seven days until the nominator rectifies the above issues. Z105space (talk) 12:41, 6 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
