For the fan who plans the whole weekend around lights out

Follow a race weekend from one new tab

A race weekend is scattered across live timing, strategy blogs, a fantasy league and a forum thread, usually in a time zone that is not yours. This page gathers them. Compact rows fit a lot of links on one screen without crowding it, and four columns keep them apart: Pit wall (the team’s desk beside the track, so live timing), Strategy, Fantasy and Paddock talk

A countdown to lights out, and a clock for every circuit

Lights out is the moment the race starts, and the Countdown widget counts the days to it. Three Date & time widgets show the local time in Melbourne, Monza and Las Vegas in 24-hour format, so you never have to work out when a session begins there. A Counter tracks your fantasy points against a goal of 100 and resets every week, which means each race weekend starts clean. A note called Sunday plan holds the rest

Pitch black with a red accent

Pitch black, a monospace font and a custom red accent (#ff3b3b) make the page look like a timing screen. A dim garage photo sits behind it at 30% intensity, and folders are 12% transparent: enough to see the picture, not enough to hurt the contrast of the links
