LAP COMPARISON TAB

Pick any two laps

Overlay two laps and see exactly where one is faster than the other. The single most useful tab for actually getting faster.

01

Top bar

Lap A

Dropdown of every lap available — current session plus any imported laps. Lap A is shown in cyan / blue.

Lap B

Same dropdown, comparison lap. Lap B is shown in amber / orange.

COMPARE

Refreshes the comparison after you change a selection.

IMPORT LAP

Loads a single-lap JSON file. Appears in both dropdowns.

IMPORT SESSION

Loads every lap from a previously exported session JSON.
02

Comparison graphs

Scrollable stack, both laps overlaid in their respective colors.

  • Speed (km/h)
  • Throttle (%)
  • Brake (%)
  • Gear
  • RPM
  • Steering (°)
  • Time delta — cumulative gain/loss of A vs B across the lap.
The time delta graph is the headline result. Trends downward across a corner = Lap A was faster there. Spikes upward = Lap A lost time there.
03

The standard workflow

  1. 01Pick your fastest lap as Lap A.
  2. 02Pick a slower lap as Lap B.
  3. 03Look at the time delta graph — find the section where the gap grows.
  4. 04Look at that same section in the speed graph — were you slower in / faster out?
  5. 05Look at throttle and brake — did you brake earlier? Lift mid-corner? Get on power later?
  6. 06Adjust your driving and run another lap.
You can also do the reverse: pick a lap that felt great as A, and your PB as B. Sometimes the lap that felt smooth was actually slow — the data won't lie.
04

Cross-session and friend comparisons

Use IMPORT LAP / IMPORT SESSION to bring in:

  • Laps from a previous session of yours.
  • A faster friend's lap they exported and shared.
  • A reference lap from a hot-lap database (any S1napse JSON export).
05

When to use this tab

  • After any practice session where you ran multiple laps.
  • When you suspect a setup change helped or hurt — compare a lap from before and after.
  • When you can't tell why a lap felt different — the delta graph will usually answer.

Stop guessing.
