Accountability

Corrections Policy

When Formula Circuit Media gets something wrong, the goal is to correct it quickly, clearly, and without hiding the change.

What gets corrected

Factual errors involving names, dates, race results, technical details, quotes, affiliations, and source claims should be corrected as soon as they are verified.

Minor style edits may be made without a formal note. Material corrections that change meaning, context, or interpretation should be acknowledged in the article.

How updates are handled

When a story materially changes, the published article should be updated to reflect the new information and its modified time should move forward.

If an earlier version was materially incomplete or inaccurate, a correction or update note should explain what changed.

  • Clarification: wording improved without changing core facts
  • Correction: a factual error was fixed
  • Update: new verified reporting changed the state of the story

How to request a correction

A public newsroom contact address can be configured with FCM_PUBLIC_CONTACT_EMAIL or the site email recipient setting. Until then, correction and contact details should be completed before launch.

Please include the article URL, the exact line in question, and the evidence supporting the correction request.
