Found three issues:

Background

  • Is it possible you could add the image of the course to this section? I know that Putney Bridge usually marks the start of the race, but you could state that the race was conducted in reverse.
    I've made a request at the map laboratory for one to be made especially for this article, but so far no-one's been prepared to step up to the mark and help. I think it would be confusing to add the Championship Course image, even with a note saying it was in reverse and to a different conclusion....

    Have added a (sort of) contemporaneous image of Westminster Bridge as a compromise... The Rambling Man (talk) 11:43, 15 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Race

That's all the issues I could find. I will promote once these are addressed. good888 (talk) 10:25, 15 November 2014 (UTC

The image will do for now, but fingers-crossed that somebody at the map laboratory will respond to your request. Anyhow, promoting this article to GA class. good888 (talk) 13:37, 15 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
