Hey r/Formula1ne,

don't know if it's off topic.

Long-time lurker, F1 obsessive, software engineer. Over the last few months I've been building a side project that pulls the live F1 feeds and puts it all on one web page.

No login, no ads, no app to install — open it during a session and you've got the whole pitwall on a tab.

Sharing to you f1livedata.com .

Here's what you can find:

• Live leaderboard with gaps, intervals, current tyre, lap counter, track status banner (green / yellow / SC / VSC / red)
• Lap times per driver — line, scatter, gap-to-leader, and an "ideal lap" view (best S1 + best S2 + best S3 stitched together)
• Sector and microsector splits with the broadcast purple / green / yellow colour coding, plus a personal-best chip
• Full car telemetry per lap: speed, RPM, gear, throttle, brake. Pick a driver, pick a lap, overlay multiple drivers on the same chart if you want to compare
• Live track map with the timing tower
• Tyre stint timeline (Gantt) with compound choices and pit-stop, plus a separate per-stint degradation chart with a linear regression option for race-pace analysis
• Pit stop panels (race + sprint): fastest stop of the session, team-by-team median, and full per-driver history with tyre age, compound switch and position delta
• Pit-loss prediction and circle of doom let you see where every driver would land if he pitted right now,  using the circuit's real pit-loss time.
• Race control feed: flags, penalties, deleted lap times, safety car and VSC deployments
• Video sync delay allows you to sync the app with the live video you're watching. This because broadcast feeds run ~20–40s behind the live timing feed, so you'd see an overtake or a pit stop in the data before it happened on your screen.

The part I'm most proud of is the custom dashboard.

You pick from any of the widgets above, drag and resize them on a grid, save the layout. Build your own pitwall, basically. There are pre-built layouts ("Race day", "Qualifying", "Strategy", "Telemetry") if you don't want to start from scratch, and everything persists in your browser so it's there next time.

It also keeps past sessions — pick any race and you get the final standings, all the lap times, all the stints, every pit stop, the race control log. Not a playback, just the full picture once the session is done. Handy for post-race debriefs or for catching up on a session you missed.

A few honest disclaimers:

• It's a hobby project, not an official F1 thing
• Mobile works (phone-optimised views for board, telemetry, track map) but the heavy-data views are nicer on desktop

If you find a bug or have a feature you'd want, drop a comment — I read everything.

Happy to nerd out about the tech stack too if anyone's curious.

Grazie if you give it a try.

Hey r/F1DataAnalysis,

Last week back I posted about f1livedata.com — the live F1 web app I've been building on the side. For those of you who missed the post, here it is: https://www.reddit.com/r/F1DataAnalysis/comments/1ug1msz/i_built_the_f1_live_dashboard_i_wished_existed/

The response was way more than I expected. A bunch of you dropped feature ideas that I decided to implement.

This is the "you asked, I did it" follow-up. Two big ones first, then the smaller stuff.

1. Video sync delay

Some of you said "cool, but it spoils the race — the data's ahead of my TV." Fair. Broadcast feeds run ~20–40s behind the live timing feed, so you'd see an overtake or a pit stop in the data before it happened on your screen.

There's now a Video sync control (the ⟳ in the navbar, or the More tab on mobile). Drag the slider to how far your stream lags (0–60s) and the whole app buffers to match — leaderboard, timing, telemetry, track map, all of it lines up with what you're actually watching. No more spoilers.

Bump the delay mid-session and it shows a little countdown while the buffer fills, with a Skip if you don't want to wait.

2. Pit-loss prediction and Circle of Doom

It's a pit-strategy view for races and sprints. Pick a focal driver (defaults to the leader, click any car to switch). The app projects where everyone would land if that driver pitted right now, using the circuit's real pit-loss time. Each car is a chip on a radial dial: the closer to the centre, the tighter the projected gap to your focal driver after the stop. Coloured halos on the two cars they'd come out between tell you at a glance whether it's a clean release or they're dropping into traffic (red = on someone's gearbox / stuck in dirty air, green = free air).

Same data lives as a plain table too if you prefer numbers — the Pit-window predictor on the Pit Stops page. Margin = gap to the car that'd be behind you after the stop, Free air = gap to the car ahead. Both shrink automatically when a Safety Car or VSC is out, because the pit-loss does.

It's not 100% accurate (I don't take into account for example the tyre degradation and fuel burn) but it's the first version, it will improve over time.

While I was in there, I've implemented some other additions (like the Themes where a Settings drawer lets you pick an accent colour and background shade, saved in your browser)

Same deal as before: hobby project, not official, free and ad-free.

And the same ask: if something's broken or there's a view you wish existed, drop it in the comments. The two headline features up there came straight from the last thread, so it clearly works.

If someone wants to support and the maintain the project, you can do personal donation.

Grazie again to everyone who tried it ❤️ — and to the commenters who basically wrote my to-do list for me.

Hi all — sharing f1livedata.com, an F1 telemetry dashboard I've been building since October 2024.
Every feedback/criticism of course are welcome.

🧩 Custom dashboards

Every other live-timing site shoves you into their fixed layout. This one lets you build your own.

• ⁠Drag-and-drop widget grid. Resize, reorder, pin anything to anywhere.
• ⁠Multiple named dashboards, each with its own tabs — keep "Race", "Quali pace", "Strategy", "Telemetry compare" as separate setups and switch between them mid-session.
• ⁠Pre-built templates (Race / Quali / Strategy / Telemetry) if you don't want to start from scratch.
• ⁠Every widget is a real plot from the static pages — leaderboard, laptime line/scatter/gap/ideal, sector bars, multi-driver telemetry overlay, tyre Gantt, degradation regression, race control feed, GPS track map. Stack them however you want.
• ⁠Layout persists per browser. No account needed.

🧩 Predefined pages

• ⁠Laptime views — line, scatter, gap-to-leader, ideal lap (theoretical best from best sectors), position-change tracker.
• ⁠Sectors — gap-to-best per sector + top-speed bars.
• ⁠Telemetry — pick drivers + laps and overlay RPM / speed / gear / throttle / brake. Works for cross-driver comparison.
• ⁠Track map — circuit + driver positions, rotated to broadcast orientation
• ⁠Stint Gantt — every driver's tyre history per lap, compound + age + pit stops.
• ⁠Tyre degradation — OLS regression per stint, hide-outliers / show-fit toggles.
• ⁠Race control feed — flags, deleted laps, messages.

Past sessions — every race / quali / FP from the calendar is browsable through the same dashboard, archive-fed. Use the same custom dashboards on historical data.

Free forever, ads-free. No signup, no paid tier, no upsells. If you'd like to maintain the project, you can do personal donation.
