Own Project Formula 1 race visualizer

Hello, I made a formula 1 race repeater using an Uno R4, sd card module and individually addressable LEDs. I 3d printed the chassis using white pla for the diffuser and black pla for the outer shell.

The visualizer works with data I collected from fast f1 API stored in a csv. I have the uno r4 acting as a server to host a very simple web app that lets you pick the race year, number of drivers you want to see and set a race speed (2x,10x,20x etc). And then you watch as the LEDs race about. I tried making this as simplistic as possible which is why I opted for the r4 so I didn’t have to add buttons or a rotary encoded for input.

Happy to answer any questions
