Formula Renault UK season

Background

Despite initial fears of the financial crisis of 2007–2008 causing a lack of entries into the championship, the series' grid increased from the previous season with a total of 26 entries prior to the championship's opening race at Brands Hatch.[1] Most of the pre-season anticipation centred around the two championship favourites: Fortec Motorsport's James Calado and Alpine Motorsport's Dean Stoneman, both in their second season and boasting victories in their début season in the series, with pre-season testing further backing media predictions that the championship would most likely be decided between the pair.[1] The series swelled to 29, for the second meeting at Thruxton.

gollark: See, there are lots of ways I could do it: - the way dokuwiki handles search, where there's a box in the navbar and when you hit enter it navigates to a new page with the results (somewhat slower to interact with, but simple and allows a lot of information with each result)- clientside JS implementing a search overlay/modal so that the results update immediately as you type, except this is kind of not that useful as SQLite full text search is not very fuzzy- a combination of these approaches, where you have a live JS-based fuzzy search thing for page *titles* and the dokuwiki-style thing for most searches

gollark: No.

gollark: Right now it's just this and there is no search box anywhere.

gollark: As in, how to make the UI work nicely.

gollark: So I have a backend extant for the search. But I don't know how to nicely integrate it in the application neatly.
