f1-2020-telemetry

This is a personal project in which I capture the F1 2020 telemetry game data and use that when my friend and I race against each other.

Current state

All current features shown in the terminal itself and there is no user interaction possible from the terminal itself.

• Shows lap data of all participants
• Highlight users who have DRS active
• Show delta between users (leader and to next car)
• Show delta between the two players
• Show players who are currently in the pit lane
• Show flag colours in different marshal zones

Documentation

• F1 2020 UDP specification

Ideas for the future

• Better delta calculations

  • Current implementation is working okay but has some flaws. If people know where to have documentation of how delta calculation could be implemented please let me know.

• REST API support

  • For simple data retrieval of the game while is active
  • Returns the current state of the state machine in JSON format via the /rest endpoint
  • Has ability to fetch rendering of screenshot via /terminal end point

• WebSocket support

  • This with the meaning that this program parses all the data, and a web browser could make it look pretty.
  • Returns the current state of the state machine in JSON format via the /socket endpoint

• Add support for F1 2021
