Qualifying Table[edit]

Currently the Qualifying table has a Grid column as the last column, wouldn't this be better suited to be placed after the Position column to make it clearer where each driver started the Grand Prix? As the table currently stands it isn't instantly clear what the standing line up is. Maybe something like this would be considered an improvement:

Pos.	Grid	Driver	Constructor	Car	Part 1	Part 2	Part 3
1	1	Fernando Alonso	Ferrari	5	1:46.515	1:56.921	1:51.746
2	2	Mark Webber	Red Bull-Renault	2	1:47.276	1:55.898	1:51.793
9	14¹	Nico Hülkenberg	Force India-Mercedes	15	1:46.334	1:55.556	1:54.382

^1 — Nico Hülkenberg was given a five-place grid penalty for changing his gearbox.^[1]

They do do it for the GP2 and GP3 pages with the grid position to the far right like so here. BosleyTree (talk) 14:26, 8 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I suppose if it is the standard then I doubt it will ever be changed. Cheers. 82.3.48.129 (talk) 14:38, 8 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It didn't used to be the standard, but new standards are coming all the time for Wikipedia. First it was the part 1 and part 3 of quali switching places, now its the grid position, makes it bit harder to read, but it was the same for the first thing I mentioned. Here is a joke you'll get if you read the 2 race reports after this: The new standard seems to be not actually writing a race report, shows you how lazy all us Wikipedian's are. Something should be done about it though. Or I will in a few day's time.86.164.152.151 (talk) 15:55, 11 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
