Misinformation about racing series

[edit]

In the introductory paragraph it is stated that Robert was runner up in the GP3 Series and that he will return for the 2011 season with Carlin Motorsport. The link for "2011 season" directs to the Formula Renault 3.5 2011 Season, in which Robert is competing, the article implies that Robert is returning to the GP3 series. Perhaps the contributor did not realize that Formula Renault 3.5 and GP3 are entirely distinct racing championships. The implication that Robert is going to compete again in GP3 should be removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.147.226.42 (talk) 09:49, 1 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I've rewritten it to make it more clear. In the future feel free to Be Bold and fix it yourself. -Drdisque (talk) 20:26, 1 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
From all accounts, it appears he isn't driving GP3 Series this year, but rather Formula Renault 3.5 Series. So I've fixed it. Shootmaster 44 (talk) 21:33, 1 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Need help .. adding 2018 to the Indy chart

[edit]

He has been driving this season, not as a test driver, and came in third at Toronto's Honda Indy in July 2018, before his crash at Pocono this past weekend. But the chart ends at 2017. I tried to update it but messed up the formatting so I reverted myself. Can someone help with this? Perhaps User:DH85868993?

Robert Wickens Named 2018 Indy 500 Rookie of the Year http://www.thedrive.com/accelerator/21166/robert-wickens-named-2018-indy-500-rookie-of-the-year

https://globalnews.ca/news/4327821/guelph-robert-wickens-honda-indy/ Wickens is in his IndyCar Series rookie season with Schmidt Peterson Motorsports, but he had been previously competing in Europe for over 10 years.

He nearly won his first race in the series, at St. Petersburg, Fla., in March. He was running third in July’s race at Iowa Speedway but wound up fifth because of another IndyCar Series screwup. http://spmindycar.com/2018/07/11/indycars-team-canada-roars-into-toronto/
