ABOUT THE APP

RacePad displays tons of useful information to be used during and after racing sessions. It connects directly to the game and provides updates in real-time. RacePad is meticulously designed and tested by racing simulation fanatics to provide the best possible experience.

TIMING VIEW

The timing view provides real-time updates on the drivers lap times. In practice sessions it indicates when a driver is in the pits, when they improve their sector or laptime, what the difference is compared to the leader, and how many laps they have done. During the race it displays the best laps, the number of pitstops and the gaps between the drivers.

DASHBOARD VIEW

The dashboard combines multiple elements into one view, providing many essential details while on-track.

On top, the dashboard displays player-centric timing, indicating how each sector and laptime compares to the drivers own and the direct opponents times. Below, the dashboard shows strategic data, a car status complete with visual tyre temperatures and wear, and an interactive track map.

MAP VIEW

The map view displays a large track map with all drivers updated in real-time. Different colours are used to indicate whether a driver is on an out-lap, in the pits or previously lapped. The map is generated automatically for any track.

STRATEGY VIEW

The strategy view is essential in preparing the best race strategy or adjusting it on the fly during the race. RacePad keeps track of your fuel and tyre usage, allowing it to pinpoint exactly when your next pitstop is required.
As RacePad keeps track of every single lap you have done, you can review the details on a lap by lap basis and see how they have affected your laptimes.
