What you get
Know every corner before the lights go out.
Every film is built from the circuit's real layout, flown in 3D over satellite imagery with the buildings around it, and timed to a simulated lap at race speed.
-
The whole lap, in 3D
Every corner and straight over real satellite imagery, with the grandstands, the pit building and the landmarks round the track.
-
Cut like a broadcast
Drone chases, onboard shots, slow motion through the hairpin and the five red lights going out, edited like race-day TV.
-
Corner by corner
Where the car brakes, turns in and gets back on the power, with the speed and gear on screen all the way round.
-
Commentary in five languages
A lead commentator and an analyst call the lap, as on race day, in English and Arabic. Austin, Mexico City and Las Vegas add French and Spanish, and São Paulo Portuguese too.
-
Full screen or 9:16
Plays full screen on a laptop or TV, and recuts every shot for a phone held upright, ready for stories and reels.
-
Free for every fan
No ticket, no app and no sign-up: every lap opens straight in the browser on any phone, tablet or laptop.
