About F1 Racing Hub

Who runs this

I'm the sole maintainer of F1 Racing Hub. I'm a long-time Formula 1 fan who got tired of having to bounce between three or four different sites every Sunday to look up a single stat. I built this in my spare time, write the code myself, and pay for the hosting out of pocket.

No team of editors, no AI-generated articles, no affiliate marketing — just one person trying to make F1 history searchable. You can reach me directly via the contact page.

Why this site exists

The official Formula 1 site does a great job covering the current season but doesn't make older seasons easy to dig into. Wikipedia is encyclopedic but slow to compare across drivers. F1 broadcasts move too fast for genuine reflection. I wanted a place where you could click through 75 years of championships, races, drivers, teams, and circuits in a few seconds — and where every page had real data on it, not generic filler.

The goal is depth without bloat: give every driver, race, season, and team its own page with the stats that matter, link them together so you can keep exploring, and don't pretend to know things I don't.

How the data is built

The full story is on the methodology page, but the short version: every number on this site comes from the public Jolpica F1 API (an Ergast-compatible mirror of the original Ergast Motor Racing Developer API) and the OpenF1 API for telemetry-grade data. Driver photos are fetched from Wikimedia Commons. Nothing is hand-edited or hand-massaged.

When I don't have a stat — like a hand-written biography for a driver from the 1960s — I leave it out rather than make something up.

Please tell me. Data quality is the whole point of the site, and a wrong stat is a real problem worth fixing fast. The fastest path is the contact page.
