Sparks Posted October 11, 2014 Report Share Posted October 11, 2014 Marc, there is a Formula 1 API that we could make use of... its just a GET request for example: "GET http://ergast.com/api/f1/current/last/results HTML v1.1" this will get the latest results, but there are a number of different ones available. The following options are available: Season List Race Schedule Race Results Qualifying Results Standings Driver Information Constructor Information Circuit Information Finishing Status Lap Times Pit Stops take a look here: http://ergast.com/mrd/ you can even get an XML response and load it directly into the database and then report off it.... worth a mess around with.
