message: I am going to put this article on hold for the easiest of mistakes to be fixed (sorry, my expectations are high). The article looks really good right now, but there are a few things that should be fixed before I'll pass it:
*Fix all redirects. Just go through all of the links, and if it has to go through a redirect, fix the link so it goes directly to the correct article. There were at least ten or more throughout the article that I found.
::Fixed. Remaining oddities are either pages with disambiguation links at the top or pipelined links where the article is titled in US English, but the term used in the article is UK English. 4u1e 19:37, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Fixed - to my eyes anyway! 4u1e 22:49, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Done. 4u1e 22:49, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

text: I'm going to fail it for now, once these are fixed, please resubmit, you shouldn't have a problem getting it passed. --Nehrams2020 08:31, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

message: Although Rosberg is now racing as a German, this suggests that he ran under the Finnish flag in FBMW in 2002 - should the article be changed? 4u1e (talk) 13:54, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

message: In 2008, Nineteen-year-old Australian Chris Wootton, Filipino-Swiss karter Marlon Stöckinger, 16, and South African Simon Moss, also 16, have each earned a Formula BMW Pacific scholarship following exhaustive trials held at Malaysia’s Sepang International Circuit from December 13 to 16.  The trio earn the title of Formula BMW Juniors, and will receive expert coaching and tuition throughout the season from BMW Motorsport professionals.
A fourth scholarship has been earmarked for 2007 Formula BMW Junior and Rookie Cup winner Kyle Mitchell of South Africa.
The Juniors, who were amongst 25 candidates from 12 different nations taking part in the trials, have each been offered 50,000 Euro (approximately 70,000 USD) of financial assistance towards the cost of a season in the region’s premier entry-level single seater series, as well as a full year in the unrivalled Formula BMW Pacific Education & Coaching programme.
The BMW Motorsport instructors who evaluated the candidates were Formula BMW Asia regular instructor Chris Wassermann of Austria, Enzo Mucci of the United Kingdom, and 2007 FIA GT2 Champion and 2005 FIA World Touring Car Championship runner-up Dirk Müller of Germany.
Based in Brisbane, Chris Wootton began his motorsport career at the end of 2004 in the Gold Coast Christmas race meeting.  He achieved instant success becoming rookie of the year in two classes in the 2005 Queensland Karter of the Year, as well as notching up several podiums during his debut season. With motorsport very much in his blood, the Wootton family has been involved in Australian motorsport since the 1960’s in both circuit racing and rallying.

message: So I don't know if this is the right place to post this, but I think it'd be helpful if their were better coverage of the past and current Formula BMW seasons. I know it's a low ranking series, but it would be handy to be able to track with ease the seasons that the racers are having.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rubiksphere (talk • contribs) 01:46, 19 October 2008 (UTC)
