Recent findings (audit lane, verbatim)

Anfield — The Spion Kop stand was named after a hill in South Africa where many Liverpool soldiers died in the Boer War — this is imprecise; the stand was named after the Battle of Spion Kop, where a local regiment (the Lancashire Fusiliers, among others) suffered heavy

A523 — The car was first revealed on 16 February 2023, but the special pink livery was for the first two races (Bahrain and Saudi Arabia), not three.

A523 — The car shared several design cues with the AlphaTauri AT04, not the AT03.

Williams FW07 — The claim that the FW07C won the FIA Masters Historic Formula One Championship in 2016, 2018, and 2021, and the FW07B in 2017, is false; the actual results do not match.

Williams FW07 — The claim that rights to the FW07's design were acquired by Longhorn Racing, which built a copy named Longhorn LR02 for CART and Indianapolis, is false; no such team or car exists.

Ferrari 158 — The Ferrari 158 was not the first Ferrari Formula One car to use a monocoque chassis; the Ferrari 156 F1-63 introduced a monocoque chassis in 1963, preceding the 158.

Ferrari 158 — The claim that Ferrari won the 1964 Constructors' Championship is incorrect; the Constructors' Championship was not awarded in 1964.

McLaren MP4/4 — The entry states the MP4/4's win rate was 95.45%, but it was actually 93.75% (15 out of 16 races).

McLaren MP4/4 — The entry claims the MP4/4 was the last turbo-powered McLaren to win the Constructors' Championship until 2024, but the MP4/5 (also turbo-powered) won in 1989.

Renault R202 — The test driver for the 2002 Renault R202 was Jonathan Cochet, not Fernando Alonso; Alonso was the team's second driver for 2002, not a test driver.

Renault R202 — The R202 never achieved a pole position; Fernando Alonso's first pole came in 2003 with the Renault R23 at the Malaysian Grand Prix.

Aston Martin AMR23 — The entry states the car scored six podiums in the first half of the season, then says it scored no further podiums 'bar two at the Dutch and São Paulo Grands Prix' — this is contradictory and inaccurate; the car actually scored eight podiums total in 2023, wi

Renault R.S.20 — The entry incorrectly lists Nico Hülkenberg as a driver in the STATS section; the correct drivers for the 2020 season were Daniel Ricciardo and Esteban Ocon.

Renault R.S.20 — The entry incorrectly states that the R.S.20 was rebranded as the Alpine A521; the A521 was a distinct chassis, not a direct carry-over or rebadge of the R.S.20.
