List of Formula One circuits

 * Nominator(s): NapHit (talk) 21:45, 8 July 2012 (UTC)

I am nominating this for featured list because I believe the list meets the criteria necessary for it to become featured. NapHit (talk) 21:45, 8 July 2012 (UTC)


 * Comments
 * "held usually" - shouldn't that be "usually held"?
 * "The first race at the circuit used the 22 km (14 mi) circuit," - would remove the repetition of "circuit". I am also confused what you really mean. Is it about the Nürbugring or Silverstone? Which circuit you are referring to?
 * Too many repetitions of the same word in the next sentences.
 * "New circuits have been used in Asia and America, the change has been a recent occurrence." - shouldn't that be replaced with a semicolon? At least it is so in English.
 * "The Circuit of the Americas is set to become the latest different circuit to host a Grand Prix; when" - you can not place a semicolon ahead a non-complete sentence, can you?
 * "The longest circuit to have hosted a Grand Prix is the Pescara Circuit, which hosted the 1957 Pescara Grand Prix. " - How about "The Pescara Circuit have hosted the longest circuit, the 1957 Pescara Grand Prix"?-- GoP T C N 11:08, 10 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Overall nice.-- GoP T C N 14:05, 10 July 2012 (UTC)
 * done all apart from the last one which would make the sentence dramatically incorrect, thanks for the comments. NapHit (talk) 21:26, 10 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Great, thanks. Supporting now :)-- GoP T C N 11:22, 11 July 2012 (UTC)

Comments –
 * "The 25,800 km long circuit in Pescara, Italy, held the annual Coppa Acerbo race, in 1957...". Comma should be a semi-colon.
 * I meant the last comma in this bit, not the second one. My fault for not being aware of how many commas there were. Basically, the comma after Italy should be restored and the one after "race" is the one that should be changed. Sorry about that. Giants2008  ( Talk ) 00:04, 26 July 2012 (UTC)
 * No worries, should be right now. NapHit (talk) 09:40, 26 July 2012 (UTC)


 * In the circuit column, Osterreichring isn't sorting in the proper order.
 * In ref 5, "Formula1" needs a space for consistency with other refs. Giants2008  ( Talk ) 15:19, 19 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the comments Giants, I've fixed them all. NapHit (talk) 16:25, 19 July 2012 (UTC)
