I've listed this article for peer review because this has recently passed its Good article nomination and I have intentions of taking it to FAC. Any feedback would be most welcome on this subject.

  • "Tony Stewart finished second and Marcos Ambrose came third." "In third" would probably be better here.
  • "During the pace laps, Kyle Busch, Keselowski, Kurt Busch and Allmendinger all had to move to the rear of the grid because of them changing their cars." Is there any reason why? Were they in accidents during practice? Did their engines fail? Were unapproved changes made?
    • They were caught up in a accident during the first practice session, I've added this in Z105space (Talk to me!) 22:00, 7 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • "Kyle Busch also earned $198,550 in race winnings." Feel free to disagree with me if you want, but I think Busch can simply be named "Busch" here without the Kyle. After all, he was just mentioned, and why would we randomly list the 17th place finisher's race winnings instead of the winners'?
  • I was told at my FAC for 2010 Sylvania 300 to avoid "sea-of-blue" linking in the tables. I'd remove the links from the race results section and remove all duplicate names of the teams and manufactures in the qualifying results section.
    •  Done

All in all, this looks to be in prime condition for a NASCAR race report. Fix these and any other minor issues you come across, and it will be an FAC in no time. --Bentvfan54321 (talk) 20:41, 7 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • @Z105space: My apologies for not being clearer; I meant "came in third" in my first request. And the first table still has some duplicate links; I don't think Chevrolet needs to be linked TWELVE times in the qualifying results section. So I'd remove the duplicate links for the team names and manufactures. Thanks for the quick response! --Bentvfan54321 (talk) 22:04, 7 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
