Hyphenation of "sprint qualifying"

Looking at the relevant articles it seems that not all editors are in agreement about when or if "sprint qualifying" should be hyphenated. I believe that it would be standard to hyphenate when it acts as the modifier of another word within an English compound (ie. "sprint-qualifying winner"), which in some cases could reduce ambiguity (ie. the difference between "sprint-qualifying results" and "sprint qualifying-results"), although personally I don't particularly care how it's written so long as it makes sense.

It don't think one has any particular preference over the other. As long as the article is consistent within its self, I don't care either way.

Evaluation

Overall this is a very well-written article. I think it would benefit to have the outcome and the major headline of the race in the beginning rather than putting it all the way at the bottom. But it was neutrally written and is up to date. The links work and are to reputable sources. They also use plenty of different sources. They use multiple motorsport news outlets as well as official documents from the FIA and Formula 1. This is very informative, I just would have changed the layout of the information. 192.54.98.221 (talk) 21:54, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I believe the IP editor is referencing the lack of detail in the lead section. If so, I would agree that the lead could be expanded based upon to provide a summary of the body of the text. HumanBodyPiloter5 (talk) 22:51, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

"Lead too short" to be removed?

Template:Lead too short to be removed? It seems to accurately sum up the article. Unless it is necessary to include details of the Copse incident?3nt0 (talk) 22:00, 5 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

These things are partially up to your discretion. I would add a 2-5 sentence summary of the race and fill out the rest of the podium. I would say that, as is is, it is in a gray area, where I wouldn't remove the template myself, but wouldn't bother restoring it if someone else WP:BOLDly removed it.
