This engaging resource challenges students to match 2024 Formula 1 circuit layouts with the corresponding telemetry graphs from pole position laps. Each telemetry graph includes data on speed, throttle, and braking, encouraging students to apply critical thinking and pattern recognition to real-world racing data.
The activity is perfect for:
Maths lessons on speed-distance-time, graph interpretation, or data analysis
STEM clubs or enrichment tasks related to motorsports engineering
End-of-term activities with a real-world context that captures student interest
Students must analyze the patterns in telemetry data and visually link them to the nature of each circuit. High-speed tracks show different throttle/braking signatures compared to street circuits — providing a great platform to discuss performance data in a competitive, hands-on setting.
How to Use:
Print out or display the telemetry graphs and track layouts.
Ask students to match each telemetry profile to the correct F1 circuit based on characteristics like:
Braking patterns
Length of straights
Corner frequency and layout complexity
Extend learning by asking students to justify their decisions using mathematical or physics-based reasoning (e.g., acceleration profiles, estimated speeds in sectors, etc.).
For more advanced groups, turn it into a timed challenge or team competition.
Credit and Data Source:
All telemetry graph data is taken from F1 Tempo, an excellent tool for visualizing and comparing F1 telemetry data from real qualifying laps.
