Improved to Good Article status by MWright96 (talk). Self-nominated at 13:00, 11 October 2019 (UTC).

This article was promoted to GA on 11 October after a very good expansion and is within policy (NPOV, adequately sourced and free of copyvio). The hook is interesting and cited inline in the article. The track marshal's name can be removed from the hook to make it read better; I'll leave that to the promoter to decide. QPQ review is also completed. Good to go. Dee 03 12:56, 12 October 2019 (UTC)

@Dee03: Have decided to remove the marshal's name. MWright96 (talk) 13:58, 12 October 2019 (UTC)

Returned from prep per discussion at WT:DYK#Prep 5: Australian Grand Prix. A new hook focusing more on the bolded subject has been proposed:
ALT2: ... that spectators at the 2001 Australian Grand Prix were not informed of the death of a track marshal as a result of a two-car collision on lap five? Yoninah (talk) 13:29, 3 November 2019 (UTC)

As I mentioned at the WT:DYK discussion, ALT2 will need to be modified since the article doesn't seem to explicitly mention that spectators weren't informed of the death, merely that it wasn't announced in general (i.e. TV viewers and maybe the media didn't know either).

Have got one hook for consideration in response to the discussion above. MWright96 (talk) 13:32, 5 November 2019 (UTC)

ALT3: ... that the death of a track marshal as a result of a two-car collision on lap five of the 2001 Australian Grand Prix was not announced until after the race ended?

That sounds better. @Dee03: Is ALT3 fine with you? Narutolovehinata5 ^tccsdnew 00:25, 6 November 2019 (UTC)

Yes, ALT3 sounds fine. Dee 03 17:40, 6 November 2019 (UTC)

Okay, giving it the tick as it meets DYK requirements. The rest of the review is per Dee03's previous comments, so this should be good to go. Narutolovehinata5 ^tccsdnew 04:01, 7 November 2019 (UTC)
