Add 2000 Monaco to that list. IIRC something happened down at the hairpin, and six/seven cars were stranded. D.M.N. (talk) 15:47, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Comments

Couple of thoughts I would like others views on before going ahead with.

1)I think we need to mention 75% race distance being completed as a reason for most races not being restarted and also where a race is restarted, the method of restarting/resuming needs mentioning (Fresh start <2 lap / Average time / Straight continuation)

2)I suggest where more than three drivers are involved in accidents causing the red flag, we state the number of drivers rather than list all of them.

3)I don't think the constructor is of relevance, so suggest it's omitted. AlexJ (talk) 23:44, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

Agree with all three (I presume you meant "Aggregate time" rather than "Average time"). I would also mention if half-points were awarded. DH85868993 (talk) 02:40, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
Yeah that's the one, couldn't remember what it was called. Agree on mentioning the half-points too. AlexJ (talk) 17:19, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
Given that we've removed the constructors from the table, should we also remove them from the "Records" section? DH85868993 (talk) 08:55, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
