F1 Trackside Weather Screensaver

The F1 Trackside Weather screensaver shows the circuit's own sensors for the current Formula 1 session: air and track temperature, humidity, pressure, wind and rainfall. Track temperature can run twenty degrees above air, and that is what decides tyre strategy. It's free, runs in your browser, and ESC exits.

Settings & tips

Frequently asked questions

Is this real data?
Yes — it comes from the OpenF1 API and is refreshed on a schedule.
Why is track temperature so much higher than air?
Tarmac in sunshine can sit twenty degrees above air temperature, and that is the number that governs how tyres behave — which is why teams watch it rather than the air reading.
Is a key needed?
No. This source is fully key-less.
Is it free?
Yes — free, no download, in your browser.
