I'll take this one now. Courcelles (talk) 22:07, 9 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

"The 2014 race was the 64th running of the Macau Grand Prix, the 35th for Formula Three cars and the second edition of the FIA F3 World Cup." 2017 race, and for consistency, use 2nd not second.
"Seven drivers outside of Formula Three took part in the race" If you HAD to compete in a Formula 3 race, how'd these guys get in?
- They would have received invitations by race organisers in this instance. MWright96 (talk) 05:53, 10 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
"start of lap seven he was able to" and he was able to
"Behind the two, Günther followed" Wouldn't it be "behind those three"?
I notice this article doesn't have air or track temperatures for either the Qualifying or Main races?
- The information concerning air and track temperatures for both races have not been made available. MWright96 (talk) 05:53, 10 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
"Habsburg used his superior to straight-line speed" needs a rework
"As the two cars slid luridly around" Are we sure "lurid" is what is meant here?
"expressed a Macau return for 2018" Are we missing something like "expressed a desire for a Macau return in 2018"?
"Ilott stated his belief that he was unworthy of being penalised because his car's onboard footage was not made available to the stewards and it reportedly showed Eriksson steering left but felt that the latter was not the cause of their collision but the full course yellow." Could use a clarity rewrite.

That's all from me. Courcelles (talk) 22:28, 9 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

- @Courcelles: Have taken action on all your points and have replied to why there is a lack of information on two of the points. MWright96 (talk) 05:53, 10 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  - Looks good, promoted. Courcelles (talk) 13:25, 10 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
