Partying Like It's 1983

Annoyances XVII - Wikipedia zealots

Each article about an F1 race on Wikipedia used to have a short notes section at the end, predominantly containing milestones. I found these hugely interesting, and would skip from race to race just reading these rather than the rest of the article.

Typical examples would be:

*Last Formula One race for Nicola Larini.
*First podium: Nick Heidfeld
*This race featured the highest number of finishers of the 1992 season (18 cars).
*This was the last grand prix to be held in November until the 2008 Brazilian Grand Prix.
*Alex Yoong did not qualify for this race due to the 107% rule. This would be the last time in Formula One that a driver has failed to qualify for a race due to this rule.
*Lap leaders: Gerhard Berger 54 (1-23, 41-71), Nigel Mansell 16 (24-39), Pierluigi Martini 1 (40)

etc, etc, etc.

And now they are slowly being removed, and lost in a sea of text.

Cocks.
