Notes

I'm developing this app in my free time, so I appreciate feedback and welcome PRs!

(Box, Box! is unofficial software and in no way associated with the Formula 1 group of companies nor the Formula E group of companies.)

Some interesting Formula 1 related projects:

• The amazing Ergast API.
• bacinger/f1-circuits: geo points for the map of each circuit.
• theOehrly/Fast-F1: client for live telemetry (upcoming) and stats, in Python.
• slowlydev/f1-dash: feature-rich livetiming webview used by the app.
