Excellent writing Simtek. There were maybe a couple of instances where sentences were a little long and could be split up, but otherwise a flawless piece. I'd say with the addition of a few pictures (if any can be found) that could be published immediately.

Thanks for the feedback, AndreaModa. Having just re-read it, I can see what you mean about some of the sentences being too long, which made it a little hard to read. I've re-written parts of it, which should hopefully flow better.

As for pictures, like giraurd, I'm a bit unsure as to how copyright works beyond the basic principles. I'm specifically unsure about what constitutes "Fair use".

The UK does not have fair use, but rather fair dealing.

You can always simply ask the person who holds the copyright! It's that simple. Just ask, explain it's non-commercial and for educational purposes, and most reasonable people will agree to use with correct attribution.

Hmm, a bit more work required then... Ah well, I'll get on it ASAP :)

It's a very good read Simtek - and honestly, you shouldn't be comparing the amount of content in a Joe Kelly profile to those of the modern era drivers because the amount of information available on them is on a whole different planet - thanks Internet.

OP has been updated with a (rather short) list of sources. Further work on the profile is underway to obtain more information and of course, some photographs, which would certainly brighten the piece up a little bit ;)

Very minor point - Jordan won four races, not three - Belgium 1998 with Hill, France and Italy 1999 with Frentzen, and Brazil 2003 with Fisichella. Otherwise, great article.

Goodness me, how did I make that error? :P Thank you for pointing that out!

Anyway, I do hope to have a much more detailed profile (2500-3000 words if not more) completed before the end of the month. I was able to get in touch with a very useful source with the help of Biscione ;)

So in case anyone still cares, it's finished (actually it's been finished for several weeks now). Whether or not it goes up is a decision that lies in the hands of a higher power ;)
