F1 Sensor – v5.6.0-beta.1

GitHub Downloads (all assets, specific tag)

⚠️ This is a beta release intended for testing.

New features

  • Let users disable bundled dashboard cards
    The F1 Sensor integration can now skip registering its bundled dashboard cards for users who only use entities and automations. Existing installations keep the cards enabled by default, and the setting can be changed later without affecting sensor functionality. Fixes #705.

  • add automatic F1TV live timing token renewal via embedded session (#697)

Bug fixes

  • Improve F1 Sensor integration startup with slow API responses
    The F1 Sensor integration now allows Jolpica requests to use their full 30-second timeout, preventing premature startup failures when responses are slow. Failed startup attempts no longer produce misleading errors about entities that were never loaded. Temporary connection failures still trigger automatic retries.
  • Restore missing Race Control card messages after reconnecting
    The live data card now retrieves missed Race Control messages when reconnecting or returning to the dashboard. Failed history requests are retried automatically, and delayed responses no longer restore messages after the log has been cleared. Existing configurations continue to work without changes.
  • Keep automatic F1TV access renewal reliable
    F1TV access retries temporary connection failures and keeps token health visible while waiting. Renewal respects changed credentials and integration reloads, and asks for a new sign-in only when the saved session can no longer renew access.
  • Keep integration settings compatible with supported Home Assistant versions
    F1 Sensor settings now open and save correctly on Home Assistant 2024.11 and newer. Saving options continues to reload the integration so dashboard card preferences and other settings take effect immediately. Existing setups require no changes.

Maintenance

  • Improve backward compatibility in the F1 Sensor integration
    Preserve Race Control event delivery for existing installations with live data enabled, keeping automations working independently of sensor selection. Existing sensor settings are retained, with no configuration changes required.
