Every Hour a Different F1 Race Plays Out in Realtime, Compressed to Fit Exactly One Hour
I built this web app to continuously replay a visualization of Formula One races, with every race normalized to run within exactly 60 minutes.
# How it works
* Each race’s original duration is mapped proportionally into a 60-minute window.
* Relative timing gaps between drivers are preserved.
* Pit stops, DNFs, and fastest laps occur at their correct proportional moments.
* Race events like red/yellow/blue flags pop up in a notification style
* Car positions are interpolated around the circuit based on lap and timing data.
# What you see
* Track layout with live car positions
* Timing tower with DNFs
* Tire data (when available)
* Pit stops (when available)
* Fastest lap tracking (when avaliable)
All races (including sprints) are there from 2023-2025. These will have all the richest data. I've also loaded in some historic seasons from the past, but these will have less data as data from pre-2023 was less available.
It runs 24/7. If you leave it open a new historical race begins every hour as I originally built it as a persistent display for my office
