Change Log

Chinese Grand Prix 2012

• Added a new replay feature for the live timings, with the ability to scroll through the time much like you would watching a video online.
• The help screen now appears on first load. If you have a settings cookie (automatically set) the help screen will not appear.
• Updated the tyre guide to this year's tyre colours and improved the display of tyres a little.
• Added row highlighting to make following the lines across the screen easier.

Brazilian Grand Prix 2011

• Introduced chequered flags to show when a car has finished their laps at the end of each qualifying session. You can now easily see which cars are still on hot laps in the final seconds of qualifying.

Belgian Grand Prix 2011

• Introduced a stream delay. If your TV is behind the live timings, increase or decrease the stream delay using the , and . buttons.
• Increased the render speed by switching a load of text out of Canvas and in to positioned DIVs
• A complete history of pit stop durations and lap numbers is now shown on the lap graph during a race.
• General tidy up of the lap graph display. Removed the random blobs that seem to bear no relation to the race and tidied up the highlight as you hover over a driver

• Added rudimentary support for iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad touch gestures. Pinch to zoom the text size and swipe left or right to switch data screens.
• On the Live Timings page you can now use the "Add to Home Screen" option in iOS Safari to run the live timings in full screen web app mode.
• The weather graph lines now scale in width according to the font size, much like the lap graph lines do.
• You can now hover your mouse over the lap graph lines to highlight that driver's progress through the whole graph.
• Added a maximum and minimum text size to avoid (very) stupid text sizes.
• Moved the commentary from the live times screen to a separate new screen.
• The time remaining and flag status will now always show on the live times screen even with a large text size.
