The Official Formula 1 Website contains errors - The entry for Johnny Herbert is misplaced (it belongs at the bottom of the table) and also, he is listed as "DNS" (didn not start). He was not present at the restart, but because he did take the original start of the race, he should be listed as "Ret" (retired) to follow the WikiProject Formula One policy regarding DNS entries. ChicaneF1.com does list Herbert as "Ret". Bobby Doorknobs 13:55, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
The reason for Johnny Herbert's DNS varies widely among sources: fire, oil leak, no spare car, not restarted, etc. They are all somewhat correct but the point is that a results table is not the right place to explain what happened. I have changed the description to "Not restarted", as that's probably the best general term for situations like this. Bobby Doorknobs 14:00, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
I have changed the reason for Jacques Villeneuve's retirement, from the official "Broken Wing" to "Wing failure". Looks better, don't you think? Bobby Doorknobs 23:37, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
No mention of support category races, probably needs some brief mention.-- Falcadore ( talk) 20:54, 14 March 2009 (UTC)
Takagi also stalled the engine, Schumacher therefore was not overtaken by everybody in the field which forces a driver to start from behind therefore I would assume that he could have started from third place, the position he achieved during the qualifying session.
