Changelog

New Circuits section shows all 24 F1 tracks with statistics: circuit length, corners, DRS zones, race laps, lap record and first GP year. Click any circuit to see its full race winners history fetched from the Jolpica API.

Race weekends cancelled mid-season (Bahrain & Saudi Arabia) now show a strikethrough overlay with a "Race Weekend Cancelled" badge in the replay picker, and cannot be selected.

Replaced the hand-rolled SVG slope chart with a Recharts LineChart. The chart now scales responsively, shows an interactive sorted tooltip per column, and uses dashed lines for DNF drivers.

Replaced the hand-rolled SVG championship chart with a proper Recharts LineChart. The chart now scales responsively, shows an interactive tooltip with driver codes and points, and includes a colour-coded driver legend.

When there is no live race, the race page now shows a grid of all completed races from the current season. Pick any race to load its full replay.

Live race view now shows a staged initialisation overlay — session info, stream connection, weather, race control, track status, driver timings, and telemetry each confirm as data arrives, then fade away.

Clicking a driver in circular mode now shows a green-to-red gradient arc spanning the full pit exit window — quick stop (−1s), median, and slow (+2s) — plus an inset card with projected rejoin gaps.

The history page now shows race results and qualifying data for the current season. Race detail pages render qualifying even before the race has happened.

Fixed race replay showing empty stats and position 99 for all drivers. Added retry logic and request staggering for session data fetching, response validation, and proxy error resilience.

New circular map mode in the live race view shows cars on a circle with correct time gaps. Select a driver to see a ghost marker showing where they'd rejoin after a pit stop — useful for spotting traffic vs clear air.

The live race circuit map now dynamically fills all available screen space instead of rendering at a fixed size.

API credentials are now stored in encrypted browser cookies instead of server-side files, enabling multi-user support on hosted deployments.

Lap time analysis now has a delta mode, inline gap-to-fastest in the tooltip, fullscreen view that fills the entire screen, and smoother curves.

Compare driver pace lap-by-lap on any race result page (2023+). Select up to 4 drivers to see their lap times charted with tire strategy overlays. Toggle pit lap filtering for cleaner analysis.

Unified navigation across the app with reusable NavLink, NavPill, and BackButton components. Sub-pages now show a back button in the header bar for a native app feel. Dashboard standings cards expand inline with 'Show all', and driver rows link directly to profiles.

Browse all drivers in the grid and view detailed profiles with headshot, current season stats, race-by-race results, career history, and progression charts.

Completed sessions now auto-enter replay mode with full playback controls — play/pause, speed (0.5x–16x), timeline scrubbing, and jump-to-time. All race data (positions, timing, flags, weather) plays back in sync.

The Battles page now supports switching between seasons with a tab selector. 2026 data with Audi and Cadillac teams is included. The Compare modal adapts to the selected season.

The full Standings page now shows team color bars next to each driver and constructor, matching the dashboard style. The championship leader row is highlighted with their team color.

Choose between 24-hour and 12-hour time format in Settings. The preference is saved and applied to all schedule times across the app.

Toggle between your local time and the track's local time on the next race schedule pills. Covers 30+ circuits with correct IANA timezones.

Session pills now have color-coded borders — red for Race and Quali, amber for Sprint and SQ, and a subtle style for practice sessions.

Podium results on the dashboard and race detail pages now use a stacked row layout with position badges, team color bars, and driver names highlighted in team colors.

The driver who gained the most positions is now highlighted with a trending-up icon in the race results table.

The dashboard now shows a next race countdown card, last race podium results, team color bars in standings, and championship point gaps.

Past races are now clearly clickable with a chevron icon, while future races are visually dimmed and non-interactive.

Added an About page with project info and data source credits. The live race view now includes a disclaimer about this being a hobby project.
