Requested move

[edit]

– Multiple reasons. Firstly, the motor racing series is called GP2 Series, not GP2. Hungarian GP2 Round is a jargonistic title. Secondly some of the title events are confusing. For example 2009 Spanish GP2 Round. There were two GP2 Series events held in Spain in 2009. While one here is called Spanish GP2 Round and the other is called Valencian GP2 round that is references other events, the Spanish and Valencian Grands Prix. Those are Formula One races. The title Spanish Grand Prix belongs specifically to the Formula One race and not to GP2 Series races on its support programe. This is highlighted further by 2009 Portuguese GP2 round for which there was no Portuguese Grand Prix held on the same day to associate with. And highlighted again by 2005 San Marino GP2 round when the race was not even held in San Marino. These race report articles should be named for the motor racing circuit they occurred at, not named for a completely separate motor race. This would also match race reports given to GP2 Asia series race reports. WP:CRITERIA-specifically Precision. Falcadore (talk) 15:36, 30 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
