An Update on my Formula One Progress
You may or may not know that I am trying to do a Formula One project - indeed many of you have lost challenges to the effect of contributing - so I thought I ought to give you an update of progress and what I'm trying to do - and who knows, maybe catch someone's eye and welcome them aboard.
Here's the list:
- F1-1950 - F1-2007 - A list of every Formula One season and race winner there has been. Completed.
- GP-1896 - GP-1986 - Non championship Formula One events/Grands Prix. Done 1925 to 1949.
- Race reports, like this. Done for 2006, 2007, 1950, 1951 and bits of 1952. Thanks to Tiger messing up, shortly 1953 and 1954 will be done.
- Driver Profiles - done some of the more legendary racers, like Tazio Nuvolari, and Michael Schumacher. Intend leaving current drivers until last. Listed in here and here.
- Records - an afterthought started here, accurate as of the end of the 2006 season.
- Tracks - all the tracks used in Formula One - all tracks covered by the copyright agreement are on here - waiting for a few to be completed by illustrator.
- Videos - embedded videos of each Formula One race available on Youtube. Again an afterthought, but found here.
- Championship Standings - Done on the Drivers' side from 1950 to 1963 and 2005-2007. Constructors' side from 2006-2007.
So there's a lot of work done, but a lot of work left, including over 750 race reports. Give me three or four years... :)
If you'd like to help, let me know, and I'll gladly let you - just remember none of it is copy and paste.
My forthcoming plan:
- Complete GP-1925 back to 1896 (when my source expires) and look for something for the post-F1 Championship years.
- Complete race reports from up to 2006.
