::::I've looke at other FIA cup competitions (not all off course) and they all refer there is a title. Macau GP competitions regulations have a bit different format but the content is more or less the same. FIA has been awarding a title to the Macau F3 event winner for quite a long time. That's undeniable. [[User:Rpo.castro|Rpo.castro]] ([[User talk:Rpo.castro|talk]]) 01:41, 11 January 2025 (UTC)
:::::What is the title awarded though? Mr, Mrs, Dr, are titles IMO, something to describe a person. It's evolved to describe the championship/cup/tournament itself. [[User:Rally Wonk|Rally Wonk]] ([[User talk:Rally Wonk|talk]]) 10:42, 11 January 2025 (UTC)
::::::What do you call the team who wins the FA Cup or the Carabao Cup? Aren't those titles? Just check [https://www.ldoceonline.com/Sport-topic/title here].
::::::The point 3 is your example (Mr., Sir), point 4 "the position of being the winner of an important sports competition". [[User:Rpo.castro|Rpo.castro]] ([[User talk:Rpo.castro|talk]]) 11:15, 11 January 2025 (UTC)
::I'm not sure I see this precept that Championship wins are titles and Cup wins aren't. For instance, the headline karting competition, the [[FIA Karting World Championship]], is a stand-alone race. [[User:MSport1005|MSport1005]] ([[User talk:MSport1005|talk]]) 19:24, 10 January 2025 (UTC)
:::A championship can be a stand-alone race. The ''winner'' of the race is awarded the ''title'' of ''champion driver'' amongst awards such as prize money and physical trophies. Traditionally, cup winners didn't get a title, but now they can be called champions, title holders and so on, depending who wrote it and where you look.
