Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Motorsport

This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Motorsport. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.

Adding a new AfD discussion

Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:

Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Motorsport|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.

There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.

Removing a closed AfD discussion

Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.

Other types of discussions

You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Motorsport. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.

Further information

For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

This list is also part of the larger list of deletion debates related to Sports.

Articles for deletion

Luca Amato

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This BLP article is entirely unsourced, and I couldn't find any significant coverage from reliable sources. Given that this article does have an image of him and his competition statistics, there may be a chance that I'm just missing something here, which is why I'm not putting this article through PROD. However, until such sources are presented, I'm leaning toward deleting this article. Lazman321 (talk) 03:35, 3 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete – Per lack of WP:SIGCOV. Svartner (talk) 05:49, 3 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Sportspeople, Motorsport, and Germany. WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 06:13, 3 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per Svartner and nom, not helped that it has no source. BuffaloTaro (talk) 11:57, 3 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: There are other people with this name that come up [1]; the subject of the AfD finished 13th, 78th and two did not qualify... That's a long way form athletic notability. Oaktree b (talk) 16:26, 3 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

2027 NASCAR Cup Series

The article was created way WP:Toosoon and fails WP:GNG. MysticCipher87(alt-account) (talk) 15:30, 31 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Automated comment: This AfD was not correctly transcluded to the log (step 3). I have transcluded it to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Log/2025 October 31. —^{cyberbot I}_{Talk to my owner:Online} 15:32, 31 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Approve per nom, once the 2027 schedule comes out. 45BearsFan (talk) 15:38, 31 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Clearly too soon. This is a case where I wish the nominator would just be bold and draftify the article before taking it to AFD. Esolo5002 (talk) 16:06, 31 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. It is way WP:TOOSOON for now. My quick before search didn't found significant information about it. Thus, fails to meet WP:GNG or to demonstrate WP:SIGCOV. Fade258 (talk) 16:09, 31 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:TOOSOON. Tioaeu8943 (talk) 18:21, 31 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:TOOSOON, won't be anything to write about for a while Giuliotf (talk) 23:39, 31 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete – As above. 5225_C (talk • contributions) 02:24, 2 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

AfDs for this article:

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Sources and Google search show that WP:GNG is not met. This is a textbok example of WP:TOOSOON. SSSB (talk) 14:45, 31 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Motorsport-related deletion discussions. SSSB (talk) 14:45, 31 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I didn't realise it had been to AfD before. This means that speedy deletion criteria G4 applies. SSSB (talk) 14:48, 31 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. My quick BEFORE search found trivial or routine information only. Thus fails to meet WP:GNG or to demonstrate WP:SIGCOV. Please ping me when references containing significant coverage are found. Fade258 (talk) 16:55, 31 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Not enough sourcing to justify yet.-- Cerebral726 (talk) 19:02, 31 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete – It would be tempting to send it back to draftspace but considering the degree of vandalism it has attracted that does not seem productive. I would also suggest SALTing for six months. 5225_C (talk • contributions) 03:02, 1 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: Not sure why this exists considering it’s the definition of WP:TOOSOON but anyways QWisps (talk) 13:01, 1 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
You are dramatic 114.10.147.171 (talk) 02:42, 2 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as per WP:TOOSOON (though the article could certainly be recreated when the 2027 Formula One World Championship draws near). TH1980 (talk) 03:14, 2 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

This is useless effort Rayuzan M (talk) 02:12, 3 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Ferrari Virtual Academy

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Fails WP:GNG. VirtualR.net is a Wordpress blog. DSOGaming is an unreliable source per WP:VG/S. FormulaPassion.it and Road & Track refs are both fairly insubstantial news stories. Redirect to Kunos Simulazioni? Mika1h (talk) 15:08, 29 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Withdrawn by nominator - Found reviews by Level (magazine): [2], The Games Machine (Italy): [3], Giochi per il mio computer: [4]. I added them to the article. --Mika1h (talk) 10:30, 3 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Video games and Italy. Mika1h (talk) 15:08, 29 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. BuffaloTaro (talk) 00:48, 31 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect – It doesn't seem to have ever been the subject of much coverage or interest. There is little discussion of the game on the developer's article but at least it would serve to confirm the basic details (i.e. release year, platform, developer). 5225_C (talk • contributions) 02:27, 2 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect per nom. Go D. Usopp (talk) 05:51, 3 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Why still vote redirect? I found 3 reviews, all are significant coverage. --Mika1h (talk) 16:37, 3 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
That by itself doesn’t mean this warrants a dedicated article. T v x1 20:13, 3 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I already expanded the article with additional sourcing, I don't think it warrants a merge now, let alone just a redirect. --Mika1h (talk) 20:28, 3 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.‎

Alexandra Saint Mleux

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Fails WP:GNG; subject is solely known for their, thus far, two-year relationship with Charles Leclerc. All sources used in the article, primarily tabloids and fashion guides, reflect this. MB 2437 20:07, 27 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Automated comment: This AfD was not correctly transcluded to the log (step 3). I have transcluded it to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Log/2025 October 27. —^{cyberbot I}_{Talk to my owner:Online} 20:30, 27 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Women, Fashion, Motorsport, Internet, and France. WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 20:31, 27 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: Known for being an "influencer" with coverage in France, in Madame Figaro [5] and to a lesser extent Marie Claire [6]. Most are about her boyfriend/spouse talking about her, but she's a fashion icon I guess. Oaktree b (talk) 20:56, 27 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
All centred on her fashion choices at various Grands Prix with a small amount of background—there is no enduring, independent notability to Charles Leclerc. MB 2437 21:02, 27 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: Coverage in Belgium [7], [8]. Most are "why the world is obsessed with her", but it's coverage. Oaktree b (talk) 20:58, 27 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
weak keep Per french language coverage. Mag2k (talk) 22:50, 27 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Being a partner to somebody notable won't make one notable. The only one source independent of her relationship consists of entirely fashion shoots - still won't make one notable. Will stand a chance if she has notable of her own without her partner. BuffaloTaro (talk) 00:40, 28 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. English Wikipedia doesn't employ the principle of WP:INHERITED notability, i.e., just being the partner/spouse/girlfriend of someone notable doesn't indiciate notability. The sources cited are mostly tabloid media sources, and they are very superficial in the descriptions they give. In other words, it's just trivial coverage. The sources literally put more effeort into describing the subject's clothing than describing anything that indicates notability. Best, --Johannes (Talk) (Contribs) (Articles) 06:42, 28 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete There is nothing notable here. Johannes Maximilian said it best... Wikipedia doesn't employ the principle of WP:INHERITED notability. I would also point out this was a failed/rejected Draft article, that despite being rejected at AFC, was pushed through anyway. --Zackmann (^{Talk to me}/_{What I been doing}) 07:05, 28 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Not that this changes much, but the two-year relationship point may be a little more permanent.[9] MB 2437 18:42, 2 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Merge with Charles Leclerc#Personal life: No inherited notability, true; however, I believe there may still be some sufficient coverage to warrant a redirect rather than outright deletion. – {{u|hekatlys}} ^WOOF 19:37, 2 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Fails WP:GNG/WP:BASIC. Oppose redirect or merge. We don't start creating redirects based on the romantic lives of BLPS. Wikipedia is not a tabloid.4meter4 (talk) 04:52, 3 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
