A real-time strategy simulation where you take on the role of a Race Engineer on the F1 pitwall. Your goal is to manage your driver's pace, tyre strategy, and pit stops to secure the best possible race result against a grid of AI opponents.

- Physics Engine: Simulates lap times, tyre degradation, and fuel loads based on realistic F1 parameters.
- Dynamic AI: Opponents race each other, use DRS, defend via "dirty air", and execute independent pit strategies.
- Track Map: Real-time visualization of car positions on accurate SVG maps of famous circuits.
- Start Procedure: Choose your driver (from the 2025 grid) and starting tyre compound.
- Live Telemetry: Monitor tyre health, gap to leader/car ahead, and lap times.
- Radio Comms: Receive updates from your driver and race control.
- Strategic Modes:
- PUSH: Maximize pace at the cost of high tyre wear. Use for overtakes.
- BALANCED: Optimal race pace.
- CONSERVE: Save tyres to extend stint length.
- Pit Stops: Call "Box Box" to pit. Choose Soft, Medium, or Hard compounds. Pit loss time varies by track (e.g., 29s at Silverstone vs 24s at Monaco).
Includes 5 iconic tracks with specific characteristics (tyre wear, overtake difficulty, DRS zones):
- Monza (Italy)
- Monaco (Monaco)
- Spa-Francorchamps (Belgium)
- Silverstone (UK)
- Interlagos (Brazil)
- Frontend: Vanilla JavaScript (ES6+), HTML5, CSS3.
- Design: Responsive grid layout with a dark "Pitwall" aesthetic.
- No Dependencies: Runs natively in any modern browser.
