== Proposed change ==

I added a section to the talk page of the 2016 season related to this table [[:Talk:2016_Formula_One_season#Results_and_standings]]. I don't want to create parallel discussions, so I am adding just a link to it here. [[User:Rks13|Rks13]] ([[User talk:Rks13|talk]]) 15:59, 10 July 2016 (UTC)

== Edit request ==

The standings read 1-2-3-5-4. Vettel and Kimi are correctly visually placed at 4th and 5th in the standings, respectively, but Vettel's position is still listed as "5" with Kimi's as "4". These numbers should be swapped.

==Fastest lap==
it would be nice to mark the driver that has the fastest lap. A way to do this is to add an "asterisk" next to the points received by the driver and add a note at the bottom that indicates its meaning. Otherwise there is no information on the table on why some drivers have more points than others with the same results.  <!-- Template:Unsigned IP --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/24.69.190.94|24.69.190.94]] ([[User talk:24.69.190.94#top|talk]]) 18:52, 1 April 2019 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== Fastest Lap Indicator ==

Any interest in changing the fastest lap indicator to something besides italic? Italic numbers are quite hard to differentiate. Perhaps underlining would be better? [[User:Krea|Krea]] ([[User talk:Krea|talk]]) 23:40, 14 July 2019 (UTC)

Above compares italic, asterisk and underlining for displaying fastest lap. AUS to GER (first 12 races) is a straight comparison, BEL to SIN (next 3 races) has 3 random drivers given the fastest lap using italics, RUS to MEX (next 3 races) has 3 random drivers given the fastest lap using asterisks, USA to ABU (final 3 races) has 3 random drivers given the fastest lap using underlining.

For me, italics is far too difficult to spot (BEL to SIN), and underlining is also not as clear as I hoped (USA to ABU). Using asterisks is the clearest, but it would look more ungainly where a dagger is also present; however, since it's pretty unlikely the two would ever be present together, and even if it did it wouldn't be the end of the world, then I think it should be the identifier used. [[User:Krea|Krea]] ([[User talk:Krea|talk]]) 00:56, 13 August 2019 (UTC)

Alternative ideas:
# using an overdot (<nowiki><math>\dot{N}</math></nowiki>): <math>\dot 1</math> <math>\dot 5</math> <math>\dot{10}</math>
# using an overbar (<nowiki><math>\bar{N}</math></nowiki>): <math>\bar 1</math> <math>\bar 5</math> <math>\bar{10}</math>
# formatting of the box (colour or border)

These alternatives are probably not a good idea. Alternatives 1 and 2 will need <nowiki><math>...</math></nowiki> tags. Alternative 3: if using a background colour, it would confuse the currently very nice colour usage. Colouring the numbers (especially with the coloured backgrounds) would probably not be very clear. If changing the border, it would be inconsistent with the current styling and would probably look really ugly. [[User:Krea|Krea]] ([[User talk:Krea|talk]]) 01:17, 13 August 2019 (UTC)

Comparison with italics (Driver_A), asterisk (Driver_B), addition symbol (Driver_C), and bullet (Driver_D). Comparing asterisk and the addition symbol, actually I think the latter is clearer. Likewise for using an addition symbol over a bullet. (There's also a nice consonance between the use of an addition symbol to mark the addition of a bonus point for fastest lap.) I will change the table to use the addition symbol on Monza qualifying Saturday (4 days' time). No doubt it will be reverted by someone, so I welcome objections, comments or suggestions below.

{{edit semi-protected|Template:F1 Drivers Standings|answered=yes}}
Hello,

I have noticed that for the 2019 F1 drivers and constructors standings tables that poles and fastest laps are displayed using letters next to the position that the driver finished the race in. In my opinion the F1 2019 standings should revert to the old format of bold for pole position and italics for Fastest lap. It was a neat and simple way of displaying pole positions and fastest laps. There was no clutter in the small boxes given for finishing positions. It is like how the IndyCar standings are done which I have always disliked for the same reason as here. The normal format is simple, clean, easy to see (have had no issues seeing on computer or tablet) And do not see why it should change. This is just my opinion and I hope that F1 drivers and constructors standing can be kept to the way normally used.

Thanks, 

Passionate F1 fan. [[Special:Contributions/2407:7000:8747:6724:8109:41F7:77F5:86D0|2407:7000:8747:6724:8109:41F7:77F5:86D0]] ([[User talk:2407:7000:8747:6724:8109:41F7:77F5:86D0|talk]]) 11:14, 8 December 2019 (UTC)

== Semi-protected edit request on 1 August 2020: Change WD for Sergio Perez ==

{{edit semi-protected|Template:F1 Drivers Standings|answered=yes}}
For the British Grand Prix, Sergio Perez' result should be changed from WD (Withdrawn) ''to DNP (Did not participate) as he was entered into the weekend but did not take part in any session.''
Withdrawn (WD) is used for drivers who were entered for the race, but were replaced before qualifying and after taking part in practice (an example would be Felipe Massa in the 2017 Hungarian Grand Prix). [[User:Mark John Mallia|Mark John Mallia]] ([[User talk:Mark John Mallia|talk]]) 10:32, 1 August 2020 (UTC)
:He shouldn't have anything at all next to his name for this race, as he was replaced prior to the first session, with a new entry list being drawn up, voiding the previous entry list. [[User:Bretonbanquet|Bretonbanquet]] ([[User talk:Bretonbanquet|talk]]) 11:08, 1 August 2020 (UTC)

:::Your description does not match with how use the WD code in the past.

== Qualifying classification link ==

It might be convenient for the readers to have the pole position ("P") indicator in the table linked to the corresponding GP qualifying classification. Now that classification is hidden behind the "Report" link, and you have to dig further to figure out how the session went.

:Based on other keys (e.g. {{tl|Template:Motorsport driver results legend}}, I believe DNP is meant to stand for "Did Not Participate" (as in, the competitor was present at the track and chose not to be involved) rather than "Did Not Practice" (Hülkenberg could be DNP then). Regardless, because Stroll was replaced on the entry list, withdrawn is the most appropriate result to record.<br>'''[[User:5225C|5225<sub>C</sub>]]''' ([[User_talk:5225C|talk]] &bull; [[Special:Contributions/5225C|contributions]]) 23:13, 11 October 2020 (UTC)

== Use of Template:F1R2021 for 2021 season? ==

I'm just curious: why aren't we using [[Template:F1R2021]] for this year's season?  It's currently the data source for the [[Template:F1 Constructors Standings|Constructor's Championship]] template and the results on individual driver's pages.  Would the community be open to changing this template to use [[Template:F1R2021]] ?  <!-- Template:Unsigned --><span class="autosigned" style="font-size:85%;">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Cin316|Cin316]] ([[User talk:Cin316#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Cin316|contribs]]) 19:31, 6 June 2021 (UTC)</span> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

::Ahhh, that makes sense.  I'm taking a stab at converting [[Template:F1R2021]] to a Lua module. You can see my progress [[Module:F1_2021_Results|here]].  I'll certainly bring this up to the community for feedback if my experimentation makes it look like we should switch.<br/>– [[User:Cin316|Cin316]] ([[User talk:Cin316|talk]]) 03:52, 10 June 2021 (UTC)
:::{{ping|Cin316}} Thanks for having a go at converting [[Template:F1R2021]] to a Lua module. Something to consider when designing the module is that on rare occasions, we need the background colour to not "match" the result, e.g. where a driver finishes in the top 10 but no points are awarded (see the McLaren row of [[2007_Formula_One_World_Championship#World_Constructors'_Championship_standings]] as an example). So (on the assumption that we'll eventually adopt your module, and that it will be used as a model for future years) if you're tossing up between two ways of doing something and one would make non-standard background colours harder and one would make them easier, then I'd suggest going for the one that makes them easier. But it's not something we definitely need for 2021 so don't worry about it too much. (Off the top of my head, I can imagine something like the module supporting an optional extra parameter which lets the caller specify the background colour - for the majority of cases, the caller would not specify the parameter and the module would determine the colour, but the caller could specify the parameter and hence override the default colour if required, e.g. the 2007 WCC table).

:::Hi, {{u|Cin316}}. I'm very happy to read that you are willing to create a lua module for us. I had indeed suggested that our wikiproject started using lua modules some time ago. I'm not familiar enough with lua myself though to create an entire module myself. However, I think we would be more helped with a general module for creating our results tables rather than a module that is only intended for one specific season.[[User:Tvx1|T]][[User Talk:Tvx1|v]][[Special:Contributions/Tvx1|x]]1 16:27, 11 June 2021 (UTC)

== Google sheets to automate standings tables ==

(Also cross-posted to [[Template talk:F1 Constructors Standings|Constructors]] as an example, and to the [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Formula One#Google sheets to automate standings tables|wikiproject talk page]])

I've put together a google sheets to fill in the race results which will automatically generate this table: [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1FwOCrXTtvh__83p32xTIR-K3btNbJbniJzxrtRqD49g/edit?usp=sharing 2023 Formula 1-2-3-E wiki tables]. It's currently set to comment-only to avoid disruptive editing, might be worth a discussion as to how editing permissions on this should work going forward.

In lieu of having any actual results to load into it for now, I've put in some sample data (mostly the first few races of 2022, including a sprint) to test:

'''Things the sheet CAN do''':
* Fill in the correct background colour for the position
* Add superscript pole / sprint position / fastest lap
* Calculate points for the race, sprint, and fastest lap (and if you get a point for fastest lap at all)
* Sort the table, including up to two iterations of countback
* Generate and sort the Constructors' table as well

'''Things I'll have to do manually''':
* Deal with mid-season driver changes (e.g. if Lance Stroll can't drive in Bahrain, or if Red Bull swaps their second driver, etc.)
* Remake the table for 2024

'''Things the sheet CAN'T do''':
* Handle unexpected formatting, e.g. in [[2007_Formula_One_World_Championship#World_Constructors'_Championship_standings|2007]] when McLaren were disqualified mid-season so all their results from then on were technically non-points-scoring positions (i.e. blue)
* Apply countback more than twice (see P16 in the example)
* Put a single '''P''' in pole position in the one day between qualifying and the race

'''How the sheet will be used''':

Race positions are added into the top-left table (F3:AH22). Pole position and fastest lap are added as driver numbers in rows 24 and 25.

Columns DG-EG on rows 3-22 produce the sorted Drivers' Championship table. You copy/paste the cells into a simple text editor (I use Notepad++) and replace all instances of a tab with a new line (in Notepad++ this is \t → \n with "Extended" search mode on). Then, just copy/paste that into the main body of the table here.

If something strange happens track-side (e.g. McLaren's 2007 DSQ), manual adjustment may be needed. I'll aim to hardcode any one-off weirdness into the sheet by the next race.

== Adding "Team" to Driver Standings table ==

I tried to add a team column to this table and [[User:BryOn2205U|BryOn2205U]] reverted it. I think this is a useful addition to the chart. The fact that team information has been missing from the chart has always bothered me. Confirming a driver's team requires checking their page, a time-consuming process.

This was a good-faith edit that improves the table without, to my knowledge, exceeding the transclusion limit, and it is [https://www.formula1.com/en/results.html/2023/drivers.html in line with F1's practices]. I also noticed that BryOn2205U has been [[User talk:BryOn2205U|warned about unnecessary reversion before]].

I am reverting BryOn2205U's reversion and would remind them that an edit war is against Wiki policy: [[Wikipedia:Revert only when necessary|Revert Only When Necessary]]. Please change or edit the additions to improve them, but please [[Wikipedia:Revert_only_when_necessary#Alternatives_to_reverting|do not just destroy them wholesale]]. Wikipedia belongs to everyone.

* This is the drivers' standings, so teams aren't relevant here. We've discussed this before, and consensus has never developed for them to be included. It's not the purpose of the WDC table to show the WCC as well, nor is it the purpose of the WCC table to show the WDC results. It gets unwieldy and overcomplicated the second a driver changes team mid-season.

*:Changes midseason are simple: Team listed is current team. It certainly works for the F1's official standings, which I linked to above. 
*:How do we determine consensus?
