TypeTelemetry turns live Formula 1 data into moving type. Speed, braking, RPM, and lateral G reshape the letterforms in real time, so you read the stress of the car as well as the pace.
It is built to sit alongside the broadcast, not replace it. Black and white, high contrast, and clear enough to follow while the race is on.
Most on-screen graphics give you numbers. They rarely show what a lap actually costs the driver: the repeated braking, the cornering load, the rhythm of attack and recovery.
TypeTelemetry works from real session data. The track line, the dot, and the type all respond to the same GPS and car inputs, so what you see is tied to the lap on track.
A lot of racing information still travels through sound. Engine note, radio, tyre noise. For Deaf and Hard of Hearing fans, that detail is often thin or missing altogether.
Here, weight and shape do part of that job. Heavier type under load, tighter forms on the brakes, lean through the corners. Commentary mode carries the same idea with captions that move with the data.
Designed for DHH fans from the start, and clearer for everyone when the volume is up or the focus is on screen.
Race sessions are loaded through FastF1, drawn on a shared track view, and played back in the browser. The Commissioner variable font handles the rest.
The map shifts gently to keep the car in view under the headline. Type and trace stay locked to the same moment in the lap.
Minimal is one driver and one word, clean for a second screen. Signature puts two cars on the map so you can compare line and pace. Commentary brings in kinetic captions, timed to how fast the car is moving and how hard it is braking.
Use the controls above to change mode, session, or driver. Scrub the timeline to move through the lap.
This site is the live version of the system. The wider project also includes trackside screens and printed archive pieces that freeze a full lap as a typographic record.
The aim for 2026 is the same everywhere: let fans sense the car as well as measure it, at home, on the circuit, and in the gallery long after the race has finished.
