Frequently Asked Questions

The simulator loads the real 2026 World Drivers' Championship standings from the Jolpica F1 API, then lets you predict the remaining rounds by assigning finishing positions (P1–P10, auto-converted to points). The championship re-ranks live, with gaps, "can still win" flags and clinch math updated on every change.

Standings, the race calendar and driver lists are fetched live from the Jolpica F1 API (api.jolpi.ca, an Ergast-compatible open API). Data updates after each race with no hand curation, so the baseline is always the official championship state. If the API is unreachable, the page explains instead of showing fake data.

Sprint weekends (6 in 2026) award points separately from the race: 8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 for the top 8. In the points matrix, sprint rounds have a narrower S column next to the race (R) column, and a full sprint weekend is worth up to 33 points (25 race + 8 sprint).

Exactly like the FIA: countback. When two drivers are level on points, the one with more race wins ranks higher, then most 2nd places, then most 3rd places, and so on down through the classifications, with the best single race result as the final tiebreak.

If two drivers are given the same finishing position in one round, the first one counts and the conflicting cell is flagged with a warning badge. The simulation is never silently rewritten — the warning tells you to fix it.
