⚠️ This is a beta release intended for testing.
This beta gives you more control over how the F1 Sensor card fits your dashboard. Try the new compact presentation, arrange modules in independent stacks, and hide repeated session details or explanations where you don’t need them. It also includes changes intended to improve responsiveness during live races.
We’d love your feedback on the new layouts across different screen sizes and on how Home Assistant and the card respond during a live session.
New features
- Add controls for session details and explanations
The modular live data card lets you hide session details and explanations in each module. Track Map also has separate controls to hide the experimental notice and driver positions list. - Add independent module stacks to the live data card
Place modules directly beneath one another beside taller modules, with adjustable stack widths and support for drag-and-drop, keyboard controls, and undo. - Add optional compact presentation across all modules
The modular live data card offers a compact layout for all modules, with closer rows, lighter text and smaller driver and tyre markers. Apply it to the whole card or individual modules while preserving selected content and readable chart and map areas.
Bug fixes
- Clarify timing overview rows in the live data card
Rename the option to “Overview rows with expandable details” and clarify that it applies at any card width. Updated help and documentation explain its difference from Compact without changing existing layouts or behavior. - Correct replay position changes in the modular live data card
Choose Position or Position + change directly in the Timing column list, with existing settings carried over automatically. Filled triangles show places gained or lost in the same text size as the position number, while a dash indicates no change. - Improve responsiveness during live races
Reduce unnecessary processing in the F1 Sensor integration to improve Home Assistant and live data card responsiveness while preserving existing features and data. Recorded race tests on the development machine used approximately 38% less CPU time without a connected analysis view and 97% less with one; these improvements still need validation across different hardware during live races.
