Audi R10
Hi. Hmmm, it seems to be six of one, half a dozen of the other, regarding the naming. On the one hand, you highlighted the Peugeot 908, with its 'trimmed' name, but going off your user page, a couple of other examples supporting using the full name include the BMW V12 LM and the Nissan GTP ZX-Turbo - both of which include in their name an element of their engine design. Regarding the 'simplified' name, then the Panoz LMP-1 Roadster-S is an example of not having a short name.
Whilst I do agree that article names should not be overly long, I also feel it important that where possible, the 'correct' name, as defined by the manufacturer should be used - and being as Audi clearly include 'TDI' in its name, adding those three extra characters to the article title certainly don't make the article name long or excessive, but they do make it more accurate, which should be seen as a good thing. I'll make an effort to fix the redirects, to fix consistency in the relevent R10 articles.
PS, you made me chuckle with your Procrastination userbar - if only we could all be so honest! Best regards -- Teutonic_Tamer (talk to Teutonic_Tamer) 06:54, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
- OK, I think I've fixed all the redirects - any that I've missed and the Bots will sort anyway. Rgds -- Teutonic_Tamer (talk to Teutonic_Tamer) 12:52, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

open up a discussion if you like, we can get some other opinions besides you and nick —Preceding unsigned comment added by Urbanarcheology (talk • contribs) 18:43, 14 June 2008 (UTC)
Looking at more sources, it does appear that Bolaños was not named to drive the car in 1972. However it does appear that he did drive in 1975 and 1976 (and even finished 9th in 1975). Thank you for pointing this out or I wouldn't have dug deeper into his Le Mans career (I wrote the article from a WP:AOWR perspective). -Drdisque (talk) 03:03, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

Article of the month - 1995 Japanese Grand Prix, recent Good Article promotion and failed Featured article candidate.
The 1995 Japanese Grand Prix (officially known as the XXI Fuji Television Japanese Grand Prix) was a Formula One motor race held on October 29, 1995 at the Suzuka Circuit, Suzuka. It was the 16th and penultimate race of the 1995 Formula One season. The race, contested over 53 laps, was won by Michael Schumacher for the Benetton team after starting from pole position. Mika Häkkinen finished second in a McLaren, and Johnny Herbert third in the other Benetton.
Schumacher won his ninth race of the season, which equalled Nigel Mansell's record for victories in a season that was set in 1992. As both the Williams cars retired from the race, Benetton were confirmed as Constructors' Champions as Williams could not pass Benetton's points total with only one race remaining.
Jean Alesi, driving for Ferrari, started second beside Schumacher. However, since his car had moved forward before the start, he was forced to serve a 10-second stop and go penalty. Alesi climbed up to second, before retiring on lap 25.
