I shall review this article. Comments will appear soon. Z105space (talk) 16:51, 15 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Lead[edit]

  • "after it was discovered one of the rear tyres of his Mercedes" - rewrite to "after it was discovered his left-rear tyre on his Mercedes"
 Done with slight adjustments
  • Wikilink Pirelli in the third paragraph
 Done

Background[edit]

  • As with other F1 race reports at GA level, the championship standings heading into the race should be included.
 Done
  • Explain who Bernie Ecclestone is to the non-racing expert.
 Done

Free practice[edit]

  • "three practice sessions were held; there were two 1.5-hour sessions on Friday and another one-hour session before qualifying on Saturday." It would better read if 1.5-hour was replaced by 90-minute
 Done
  • Italicise The Guardian as it is a newspaper publication.
 Done
  • "Nico Rosberg, for whom it was the first race after the birth of his first child," I believe the mention of Rosberg's first race after the birth of his child is irrelevant to the article.
 Done
  • "Force India's" - Force India cars
 Done
  • "but he was able to continue after losing his car at the Ascari chicane." - the words "control" and "of" need to be added inbetween the words "losing" and "his"
 Done
  • Wikilink red flag to Racing flags#Red flag as the non-racing expert will not understand what it is
 Done

Qualifying[edit]

  • "penalized" - Re-word to penalised as F1 race reports should be written in British English
 Done
  • "is engine cover blown of at Curva Grande" There is a typo here as "of" should be spelt as "off"
 Done
  • "littering the track with debris," replace the word "littering" with "scattering"
 Done
  • "both Manor Marussias and both McLarens were eliminated." I feel this sentence should be written as "both Manor Marussia and McLaren cars were eliminated."
 Done with "drivers" instead of "cars"

Race[edit]

  • De-link Marcus Ericcsson as he is already linked in the qualifying sub-section
 Done Removed all repeat links (4 in total)
  • "which allowed the Mercedes to move in to less than three seconds behind the Ferrari." - Do you mean Rosberg moved within three seconds behind Vettel? Is so re-word the sentence as the wording is potentially confusing.
 Done

Post-race[edit]

  • "Red Bull's team principal" - Remove the "'s" in "Red Bull's".
 Done
  • "At the podium interview, conducted by director George Lucas," - the word "film" should be added after the word "director" for clarification.
 Done

References[edit]

  • The publisher for References 2 & 18 should be JHED Media BV just like in Reference 3
 Done
  • Reference 6 is dead. Is there any possibility of finding an archive link through the Internet Archive?
 Done Replaced with better source + archived link
  • References 48, 49, 53 & 54 should say work is Formula1.com and not FIA
 Done

@Z105space: Hey! As you can see, I got quite a lot done, but with having visitors the last couple of days and heading to a seminar tonight, I might need until next weekend to finish the last points of the review. I hope that is OK? Zwerg Nase (talk) 08:53, 4 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Zwerg Nase:Yes that is absolutely fine. Z105space (talk) 11:48, 4 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
