Using track history and projected driver pace, Battle Forecast will predict how many laps before the chasing car is within ‘striking distance’ of the car in front.

The Pit Strategy Battle graphic provides fans with additional insight into how to assess how successful each driver’s strategy will be in real-time. Fans will be able to track subtle strategy changes and see the impact on the final outcome.

Estimated pit stop windows based on tyre compound, lap times, and spread of cars. Viewers will see how a race can be altered based on race dynamics, including racing strategies of other teams, safety cars, and yellow flags. 

Historical data is used to calculate race strategy during the formation lap, comparing predicted tyre and race strategies. This insight allows viewers to see when a driver should strategically make his next pit stop.

A successful ‘undercut’ can win you the race or gain a vital position. It is undoubtedly one of the tensest moments that the technical team have to face during the race. This graphic will bring fans closer into the world of the F1 strategist where these split-second decisions can win or lose vital championship points.

This insight shows how teams develop their cars, how quickly they develop their cars, and what the on-track result is throughout the season. The development race both during the season and from year to year is the principal KPI for an F1 team, and this provides a unique insight into the inner workings of F1 and how the teams perform against each other in this area.

This insight isolates an individual car’s performance and allows fans to compare its performance to that of different vehicles head-to-head comparing building blocks that make up car performance – namely cornering performance, straight line performance and car balance or handling.

Driver Performance highlights which drivers are pushing their car to the absolute limit of performance in comparison to their teammates and competitors. Calculating the forces generated by a car’s tyres during a lap, and comparing it to the car’s maximum capability, this will show how much of the car’s potential performance is being extracted by the driver. Three parameters will be shown to highlight three key areas of driver performance that have a major effect on the ultimate goal - lap time: Acceleration, Braking, Corners.

This provides a breakdown of driver performance based on the most important subset of driving skills by analyzing a wealth of data across effects of the car, tyres, traffic, fuel, and more to a scored output of each driver's performance across the season against seven key metrics – Qualifying Pace, Race Starts, Race Lap 1, Race Pace, Tyre Management, Driver Pit Stop Skill, and Overtaking. These metrics are normalized using from a range of 0-10 to provide a ‘score’ style metric, and provide an insight for viewers, fans and teams alike into where a certain driver’s strengths and weaknesses lie and how they compare to others in the field.

Pit Lane Performance will provide fans and broadcasters an opportunity to dissect the whole of the pit stop event, to understand the time being lost and found from the moment the driver dives into the pit lane and exits the other end.

Historically a subjective session, this F1 Insight powered by AWS will use machine learning and an analytical methodology, taking the practice data and using historical data of how teams progress between Saturday and Sunday’s races.

Gives fans a detailed view of how each driver is able to exploit performance (or not!) in the start or launch phase.

Braking Performance shows how a driver’s braking style during a cornering maneuver can deliver an advantage coming out of the corner. This compares drivers’ braking styles and performance by measuring how closely they approach the apex of a corner before braking and will show how the car and driver perform together when cornering, such as top speed on approach, speed decrease through braking, the braking power utilized, and the immense G-forces drivers undergo while cornering.

Analysis of cornering as determined by optimal braking and acceleration point around a specific (and crucial) corner, which is the area where each driver has the most to gain. This insight gives viewers a detailed understanding of the losses and gains on lap times and allows comparison between cars.

Using car data, namely car speed, longitudinal and lateral accelerations, and the Gyro, we are able to build an estimation of slip angles and then derive vehicle balance models for each car. This gives an output of tyre wear energy. (Note: tyre wear energy is not physical tyre wear but instead the energy transfer of the tyre contact patch sliding across the road surface.) The output gives us a tyre performance for each corner, which indicates how much the tyre has been used with respect to its ultimate performance life.

The Lap Comparison graphic contextualized the performance level of an F1 car for fans and broadcasters by comparing it’s lap times with that of the Safety Car and a ‘generic’ road car. The purpose and output of this graphic, will be to demonstrate through a data model, how superior F1 technology is compared to technology and performance a viewer will be more familiar with.

Projected Knockout Time gives fans and commentators a ‘team-level’ insight into the time each driver is aiming for in order to make it through to the next qualifying session. Utilised in the latter stages of each session, this graphic’s target time will provide an exciting target for fans to map each drivers times against as they cross the line on their flying laps – ultimately bringing fans closer to the drama of the final outcome.

Track Dominance graphic gives fans and commentators an insight into where a driver is dominating his rivals around the circuit as we watch the practice and qualifying sessions play out in real time. Additionally, a post-session telemetry comparison allows a deeper analysis for fans into who is making all their time through the corners and who is powering away down the straights – ultimately bringing fans a greater insight into driver and car performance and tactics on race day.
