[edit] Jenson Button

It says on the Jenson Button page that he was Disqualified from this race, but here it lists that he came in third... anyone? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 131.191.22.209 (talk • contribs) 21:27, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

What is on the page is correct. His qualifing result was third, finished the race in third place, but both Button and Sato were DSQ'd after the race, and their results were stricken from the books. -slowpokeiv 16:43, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] ITV F1 Controversy

Should the ITV F1 controversy be mentioned in the article or is it too UK centric? For those that don't know, ITV decided to cut to adverts 3 laps from the end returning only on the final lap. As Schumacher was battling for the lead with Alonso this was a ridiculous time to take a break and it was later found to be in breach of the regulators rules on adbreaks during live sport. It got quite a lot of press coverage ([1] for example) Does it have a place in the article? I think if RTL or Speed did something similar, I'd be happy for it to be included in the article. What do others think? Alexj2002 09:58, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

I was never aware they did that, although I only started watching after I found out Ferrari weren't dominating winning as much as the previous years, which was about the 2005 Monaco Grand Prix. Anyway, I think it does deserve a place in the article because as you say, it breached a Rule of Advertisement Breaks.--Skully Collins Edits 14:09, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Images

Apologies that one of the images is missing from the article at present. It's been deleted as a copyvio because only the website was checked (which states it was copyrighted), the link to the email permission from the author in the OTRS system wasn't. I'm trying to get it restored. Alexj2002 21:07, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
