New features
- Add 2026 preseason track map baselines
The F1 Sensor integration and live data card now include preseason map markings for Austin, Mexico City, São Paulo, Qatar and Abu Dhabi based on the previous season’s FIA layouts. The card identifies those markings as baselines so users can assess them and report corrections before current-season data is available. - Show timing colors for the latest lap
The F1 Sensor integration now preserves fastest-lap status so the live data card can highlight personal-best and overall-fastest latest laps with configured colors and accessible indicators. - Enable community translations for the Live Data Card
Live Data Card translations now use Weblate-compatible files while preserving the existing English, Swedish, and Dutch experience. Translation updates can now follow the same automated review workflow as the integration.
Bug fixes
- Remove unavailable Mini Sector module
The live data card no longer lists the unavailable Mini Sector module after its integration support was removed. - Clear investigations when sessions change
The F1 Sensor integration now removes investigations from the previous session while preserving new incidents in the current session. It also recognizes incidents scheduled for review after the session. - Correct live grid positions after race penalties
The F1 Sensor integration now uses the confirmed starting grid for live driver positions, keeping positions gained or lost accurate when penalties change the qualifying order. - Keep current tyre stints stable without a tyre change
The F1 Sensor integration now ignores unchanged tyre stints until a real tyre change is reported, preventing tyre details and stint lap counts from jumping between conflicting values. - Keep championship predictions current when leaders stay the same
The F1 Sensor integration now updates predicted driver and team standings even when the predicted leaders do not change. Dashboards and automations receive current positions and points throughout the session. Fixes #828.
Documentation
- Add Weblate translation link
Help contributors find the hosted translation workspace directly from the project README. Translation contributions are documented as pull requests targeting the development branch. - Refresh F1 Sensor project overview
The README now offers a shorter welcome, documentation-first journey, clear community links and a visible Hosted Weblate translation path. It also places GitHub Sponsors early for readers who want to support F1 Sensor.
