McLaren MP4-30 edit
McLaren MP4-30
- ... that the McLaren MP4-30 (pictured) was nicknamed the "size zero Formula One car" by the team?
- ALT1:... that the McLaren MP4-30 (pictured) led the team to endure its most difficult season in its 35-year history?
- ALT2:... that the McLaren MP4-30 (pictured) was the team's first Honda powered Formula One car since 1992?

- I like ALT2 best. The proposed "size zero" comment makes sense in the context of the article, but taken individually, it comes across as fluff. ALT1 isn't bad, but could probably be better expressed. Prisonermonkeys (talk) 09:58, 9 June 2016 (UTC)
New enough (became GA on 5 June, nominated on 9 June), long enough (over 1500 characters), and within policy.- For the hook I strongly prefer ALT2 as well. I think ALT0 is confusing to a casual reader, as it requires reading a lot of the article to understand it. ALT1, I'm not convinced the car was wholly to blame, as the Honda engine was a major source of their torrid season. ALT2 hook is short enough, inline cited and within policy.
- QPQ done.
- Image is free, used in the article and good enough quality.
Overall, this nomination passes, congratulations. Joseph2302 (talk) 21:24, 13 June 2016 (UTC)
