[edit]While I have no questions over notability, I find this article to read like a puff piece - very promotional. Please can we rewrite? Porterjoh (talk) 05:53, 30 May 2026 (UTC)

- Agreed — the previous version read more like a press release than an encyclopaedia article. I have rewritten it with the following changes:
- Removed all promotional language ("nothing short of meteoric," "exceptional results," "impressive," "dedication") and evaluative adjectives unsupported by the sourcing
- Cut the extended Italian-language block quotes, which added length without encyclopaedic value; sources are retained as references
- Removed the "Records and achievements" section — the content was largely a restatement of facts already in the body, formatted to read as a highlight reel
- Removed the "Family racing legacy" section as a standalone block — Fabio Comparato's career belongs in his own article; brief contextual mentions are retained where directly relevant to Alberto's story
- Removed "Technical details and equipment" — this level of operational detail is not standard for a driver biography and was not independently sourced
- Tightened the career narrative to one fact per development; no repetition across sections
- Added a championship results table in place of the bullet-point career statistics, which is standard format for motorsport biographies
- Retained all cited facts; nothing has been removed on factual grounds
- The article still needs independent sourcing beyond the subject's own family website and a specialist publication where the author has a declared relationship with the subject. If anyone can add references from Italian mainstream sports press or UIM official records, that would strengthen the article considerably. Porterjoh (talk) JLM1966 (talk) 06:08, 30 May 2026 (UTC)
