Portal:Formula One
See archived peer review. 15 sets of 4 DYKs; 10 selected biographies, all GA or FA; 22 selected articles, all GA or higher; 21 selected pictures, including F1's sole FP; a self updating "Next Grand Prix" box; news from Wikinews using the bot thingy; and current world championship standings, which are the only part of the portal which requires maintenance, and that should be fairly easy. My uneducated guess and untrained mind thinks this portal is ready to be featured. Thanks in advance for all comments.

Your selected pictures and every image on Portal:Formula One/Next Grand Prix breaks out of the box for me on Firefox at a screen resolution of 1024x768 and 800x600, what resolution did you design the portal for? Nanonic (talk) 00:27, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
 * I use a 1280x1024 resolution. I've dropped those images down to a better size. Aptery  gial  01:13, 4 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Comment You don't have a "Related WikiProjects section", which is a good way to encourage people to start editing. (example: Portal:Norway/WikiProjects) It would fit nicely under the categories. Everything else looks great! ☺    Spiby    ☻  15:38, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
 * I've added the section in. Aptery  gial  06:53, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Then I will support. Great portal! You might want to try to get some more of the selected pictures to Featured status though. ☺    Spiby    ☻  13:36, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Thanks. Aptery  gial  23:43, 10 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Support Looks great - nice job! Found at WP:MOTOR. I'm not a member or associated at all with WP:F1.  Royal broil  02:40, 7 April 2009 (UTC)

 * Haven't went there after I gave my last comment, but you don't need to over-emphasis on giving photo credit in the lead section because it's distracting. Leave it for pictures section to do its job. OhanaUnitedTalk page 17:56, 10 April 2009 (UTC)
 * I've removed it. Aptery  gial  23:43, 10 April 2009 (UTC)
