Will be claiming this for review; full review to follow soon. So far looks good, don't really see any important parts that are unsourced. Among the hooks, the best ones are probably ALT2 and ALT3, but I think we just recently had a Le Mans-related hook about renewable fuel so ALT2 may end up being the best option at this point.

Article appears to meet the requirements; while Earwigs seems to detect a hit, it's pretty much a false positive since the "paraphrasing" that was detected was simply the lap times, which is merely data (and in any case is sourced). QPQ has been done, all hooks are cited inline and verified. The best hook is probably ALT3, followed by ALT2, then ALT1. While ALT3 is good, I would suggest not using it as we just recently had a renewable energy/Le Mans hook recently. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 04:50, 25 July 2019 (UTC)
