When submitting data to Driver Database it is possible to leave a field blank if information is missing. It seems however to be widely used as a 0. 0 and blank are not the same thing!

If a driver has 0 fastest laps - you type 0 in the field.
If you don't know how many fastest laps a driver has - you leave the field blank.

It does seem to be a psychological block for racing drivers themselves to use the 0 key, but please try to use it and not just leave things blank that really is 0.

When a blank field has been submitted it is automatically transformed into a question mark and the text "Complete results needed" appears below the entry.

We dance to all the wrong songs. Enjoy all the wrong moves. We're not leading.
