Grid History — Every Lap on One Clock
An interactive Formula One archive that reconstructs races from timing data, hand-traced circuits, and measured car positions.
Field notes
Grid History presents races as a moving field rather than a static result: users can scrub through an afternoon while measured car positions advance around hand-traced circuit outlines. The page says positions are sampled at 4 Hz, while lap times, pit stops, tyres, flags, and sectors come from the Ergast/Jolpica F1 API and FastF1. It also distinguishes the hand-drawn circuit work from OpenStreetMap surroundings and states that the project is unaffiliated with Formula One, the FIA, or any team.
