Before posting a message here please consider if this is the correct venue. If you wish to discuss me (SSSB), my edits (read the second paragragh if you have an issue with an edit request I implemented) or you wish to bring my attention to a certain matter, this is the correct venue (there are other cases where this is the correct venue).

However, this is not the correct venue to make edit requests. These requests should be made on the talk page of the page which you would like to be edited, if you request an edit on a page in which I have an interest it will appear on my watchlist, I will see it. If you have a problem with an edit request I implemented, please consider if it might not be better to respond where the edit request was made (you may use {{ping}} or {{u}} to attract my attention). Thank you,

Was not a debut for Bearman at the KSA GP as was a debut for De Vries, Piastri, and Sargeant at the BHR 2023? That's why I put that prose as per 2023... Island92 (talk) 17:17, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Island92: De Vries, Piastri and Sargeant all participated in FP1 and FP2 at the 2023 Bahrain Grand Prix. Bearman did not partcipate in FP1 or FP2. Looking at the sporting regs sourced at 2024 Formula One World Championship#Free practice drivers,^[1] the mandated use of free practice drivers is specified in section 32.4 (which is about the general use of third drivers in practice section, with paragraph c specifing that "rookies" must be used twice). It specifies that third drivers are for FP1 and FP2. Therefore Bearman does not count towards Ferrari satisfing article 32.4 c as Bearman did not participate in FP1 or FP2.

Understood. Do I have to remove the prose then? Island92 (talk) 18:20, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Unless you can find a source, it has to go whether you agree with me or not, because it is original research SSSB (talk) 19:01, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ok. IP removed. Island92 (talk) 19:52, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Russian drivers were really banned Anlmñ (talk) 06:56, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Anlmñ: I don't think they were. If they were, the onus is on you to provide reliable sources. See WP:BURDEN. SSSB (talk) 10:03, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
