This an example of how this infobox should look. The title is automatically derived from the page title. The "engines" field is normally only applicable in single-seater championships, as most production-influenced series use engines that correspond to the chassis manufacturers. The value for the first season forms a link to that year's motor racing category, eg: Category:2003 in motor racing.
Would it be possible to amend the infobox for artiles where "Tire" is the preferred spelling? Mustang6172 ( talk) 03:29, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
Could extra detail be added for BTCC so that Independents Drivers Trophy and Independents Teams Trophy is insertable. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mharris99 ( talk • contribs) 19:52, 21 September 2011 (UTC)
The "inaugural" (instead "inaugural2" has to be used) and "folded" won't let you link to the specific edition of the championship. It links to a category year in motorsport since the infobox creation in 2007. As a common practice in infoboxes, no such restriction to link articles exists. Does anybody oppose removing the links to categories? A new parameter "folded2" could be added that allows linking articles, but I think it'd make more sense to remove the categories completely. Also pinging the template expert @ Primefac for opinion and possible replacement of "inaugural2"->"inaugural" by bot. Motorsport WikiProject has been notified.

When visually scanning the page for the current year (2024 right now), the "Current season" link doesn't pop up. I suggest adding ({{CURRENTYEAR}}) to make it immediately visible. It would then be "Current season (2024)". The RedBurn ( ϕ) 07:24, 6 April 2024 (UTC)
