Review speed traces, sector splits, and driving line data to understand exactly where lap time is being lost.
Data analysis has transformed motorsport at every level. What was once exclusive to Formula 1 teams is now accessible to any driver with a smartphone. Polygon Track's analysis tools let you overlay laps, compare corner speeds, identify under-braking or over-braking events, and quantify improvements session by session.
After each track session, your GPS data is processed and visualised in an intuitive dashboard. A speed trace shows your velocity across every metre of the circuit. Sector timing breaks the lap into three timed segments. Line comparison overlays two laps on the same map so you can see precisely where the driving lines differ and which produces the better time.
The most actionable information from track analysis is corner speed — specifically the minimum speed reached at each apex. Increasing minimum corner speed by even a small margin delivers compound time gains as the car accelerates from a higher baseline onto every straight. Polygon Track highlights the corners with the greatest time gain potential based on your own data.

That immediately brought to mind one of my fondest memories, involving my daughter when she was just a toddler of one.
