If you no longer wish to receive these messages, you may add Car racing websitesA long time ago, you posted a discussion regarding the reliability of various websites here. I don't know if you are still curious as to the result of the discussion, but as an editor with a few good articles in the area I thought I'd give it a crack. Planet Le Mans, not reliable. If it's covered in Planet Le Mans, and is true, it'll be covered elsewhere like Autosport. If not, its just paddock talk. Racingsportscars is a last-ditch source. Plenty of motorsport databases exist, Motor Sport (magazine) has their own, albeit spotty. The FIA publishes yearbooks in which results for races can be found; a library request is simply the way to go. Moreover, if that website is being used to establish notability, it's probably not a good idea. Ultimatecarpage. Where do I start. It's not encyclopedic, I'll say that much. Whatever claims it makes should be cross-referenced with other sources. The only thing I'd ever use it for is car dimensions (height, length, width, wheelbase). More often than not, magazines such as Car and Driver and Motor Trend have first drive reviews which include specifications (reading the latest issue of Evo gives the same impression). Mulsanne corner is wholly USERG and unsuitable, if you have a look at Audi R10 TDI the same User who contributed largely to the article is also responsible for the website itself. Luke, who in that discussion, asserts that since these sources are present in current (then) good articles, means that they are reliable. Not the case. Many, if not all, can and should be superseded. I'm sorry if this was a long read, but it is really disappointing with how crap most of our motorsport articles are. It really is. X750. Spin a yarn? Articles I've screwed over? 05:29, 18 April 2023 (UTC)
