F1 2010 Belgium - Hamilton's McLaren Telemetry

Exploring telemetry data pulled from a Google spreadsheet using interactive Google dashboard widgets (may be slow to load...)

The sLap slider lets you set the "distance round track" range to zoom in to data traces from different parts of the track.

Note: the data shows sensor samples vs distance round the track collected over the whole of the race. If Hamilton did exactly the same line for each tour, the GPS points vs distance should match... Becuase the data is collected from multiple laps, it is possible for several different values to be displayed for any given sLap value.

For a way of visuliasing the data across the whole race on a per lap basis, see eg F1 Data Junkie – Driver DNA

Peeking at some of the examples, it should be possible to add in a drop down list that allows you to set the sLap range from the turn number (assuming you map the sLap range to corner number before hand...?

F1 Belgium 2010 - McLaren Telemetry - Hamilton's Gear Usage Round Spa

Telemetry data samples show Hamilton's gear usage during the 2010 Belgian grand prix at Spa, as captured from 1Hz McLaren telemtry data streamed via their live dashboard.

















The node size for zero braking is quite large in the previous images. Here's a view that highlights the actual braking areas:



And here's HAMilton at or near full throttle:
