Hi, Dieter. I just looked for any source that could help me with youngest and oldest ever to score a fastest lap but it was impossible. So, I just checked one by one all fastests laps since 1949 and I made the ranking you have deleted. What can we do with that issue? Thanks!

| This is Dieter Lloyd Wexler's talk page, where you can send him messages and comments. |
|
 | Dieter Lloyd Wexler is busy in real life and may not respond swiftly to queries. |
 | Dieter Lloyd Wexler is currently feeling discouraged about Wikipedia and is taking an off-and-on wikibreak due to loss of motivation. Your help in cheering this user up would be appreciated. |
 | Dieter Lloyd Wexler is currently experiencing significant stress that may affect his ability to work on Wikipedia. He may choose to work in quieter areas and avoid complicated tasks or areas prone to conflict. He may also respond to talk page or email messages more slowly than usual, and your patience is greatly appreciated. Thank you. |
There is a mop reserved in your name
[edit] |
You are a remarkable editor in many ways. You would be a good administrator, in my opinion, and appear to be well qualified. You personify an administrator without tools and have gained my support already! |
I've been reading through your contributions and I'm wondering if you have any interest in helping out. BusterD (talk) 13:17, 9 February 2024 (UTC)
