Looks good, yep I¹d also be interested to choose a race and see all the
key events¹, with links to the places on the tracks and the
drivers...(characters/events/timelines, anyone?)

I think it's good Chris - lots of potential. Would be interesting to see key
race events highlighted, such as a timeline for the race, maybe then allowing
you to search for things like how many crashes at a particular corner.

Subject: [backstage] F1 API
Formula One fans may be interested in this experimental motor racing data API:
http://ergast.com/mrd/
This is a personal project, not a BBC one, but I'm shamelessly plugging it
here because I'd really value your comments and suggestions.
The API provides result data from 2000 onwards, circuit geo co-ordinates and
Wikipedia links for drivers, constructors, circuits, races and seasons.
The intention is to track the emerging results during the coming season where,
coincidentally, TV coverage is moving back to the BBC.
