even live track map. wow, impressive tool!

Thank you! I'm very proud of the track map and lap charts. I mulled over for months about rewriting the app into a native app or website so that I could do proper graphics etc, but then one day earlier this year I suddenly realised I could use Terminal Graphics protocols to achieve inline graphics in the TUI itself, giving me the best of both worlds!

Is there any reason you couldn’t render the pixels to the screen as opposed to a constantly updated image (which as the docs note is terminal choice limiting)

I installed on Windows using the dotnet method and it doesn't seem to work. The top line with Quit / Cursor / Session / etc shows up but none of the keys do anything.

I was hoping to test it out during the session currently going on :)

Looks enticing! Regrettably a quick install (using the dotnet tool method, Win10) installs without error, but running the app results in an unresponsive window (both terminal and console), logs show no error... None of the key commands work (not even Q). Import data woks, but does not change the unresponsive window. Not looking for tech support, just making you aware that some additional steps might be required in the README (are there geographic limitations?). Thanks!

Great work! > Tyre Strategy page Nice, I'll be able to see how Ferrari have fumbled strategy for their drivers.

We have to make sure the screen goes all the way to Plan H.

You're being optimistic. Like Excel, I think we need double letters...

This is really very cool and as a geek who loves F1, I can't wait to play with this over this weekend and beyond.

I'm curious where the live/static data is coming from and how freely available it is. Most sports are very protective of their data rights in the betting era (I know of one guy who spends six figures on tennis data a year - and yes, he makes a profit from it), so I'm wondering if/how F1 sees all this.

Regardless, I think this is absolutely marvellous, and can see this becoming my second/third screen while sat on the sofa enjoying the races live. Thanks, and if I can find a way to contribute/give back, I will.

Kudos to you for even using Whisper to transcribe radio messages!

I have to admit, the transcription quality isn't all that great, it depends heavily on the driver and the audio quality on that particular weekend. I think it's better than nothing though.

Today is the worst it'll ever be. Even Whisper is streets ahead of what we had just a couple of years ago.
