Talk:Tony Kanaan/Archive 1

Religion?
I searched online and I can't seem to find any source that states he is jewish. If you know of any please cite it, his personal page only states that he is Lebanese and Brazillian. Thanks IndyCar 23:06, 20 April 2006 UTC-5


 * With a middle name like " Rizkallah", it is doubtful that he is jewish. ...allah is arabic for God.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.4.75.184 (talk) 21:42, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

Name
I removed the line that was stating that, due to Portuguese naming costums, Kanaan is a maternal name and Filho would be the paternal one. This assertion was completly false, as Tony Kanaan has no maternal name. "Filho" means son in Portuguese and, in this context, has the same meaning of "junior". Tony Kanaan's father was named Antoine Rizkallah Kanaan and his son has exactly the same name, with the only difference of having "Filho" in the end. When Portuguese speaking people have names like Júnior (Jr.), Filho (son), Filha (daugther), Neto (grandson), Sobrinho (nephew), among others, it is usually because their whole name, apart from that last word, is the very same of someone else in the family, and that last word can not be considered a Family name. It is true that Portuguese naming costums frequently feature a maternal name before the paternal one, but having no maternal name is not uncommon. 187.20.6.38 (talk) 22:35, 3 October 2015 (UTC)

There is enough citations and verified information regarding this particular subject (111.92.29.222 (talk) 15:41, 25 June 2018 (UTC))

Citations may be there, but in line citations needs to be given more (Blake Peter (talk) 15:42, 25 June 2018 (UTC))

Wrong and missing information
The grey area under his picture has the wrong years for his Championship (2004 not 1999) and his Indianapolis 500 win (2013 not 2004). Also, after pages and pages detailing every season, why does it stop after 2014 (with only a brief mention of 2015)? He is still an active driver in 2019, and has driven in over 300 consecutive starts.
