Checking against the GA criteria

GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)

1. It is reasonably well written.

   a (prose, no copyvios, spelling and grammar): b ( MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):

   "Bräck, the season points leader heading into the race was awarded the pole position" - might read better with em dashes, but feel free to ignore...

   "The race was due to be held over 210 laps originally but was reduced to 168" - is there a given reason?

   It was the event's schedule had to be compacted because of the problems in the previous two days MWright96 (talk) 21:42, 31 October 2016 (UTC) reply

   " and was held on 22 September at the Rockingham Motor Speedway in Corby, Northamptonshire, England, United Kingdom" - too many. I would personally just write "Corby, Northamptonshire", but I'll leave it up to you

   I've removed United Kingdom from the sentence. MWright96 (talk) 21:34, 31 October 2016 (UTC) reply

   "Kniefel had reduced the number of laps to be run from 168 to 140 because of the danger from fading sunlight" - this could be mentioned in the lead also
