Components

• Jolpica F1 API
• Redis
• Lyzer API
  • C#
  • ASP.NET
• Lyzer Frontend
  • React
  • Typescript
  • Vite

Jolpica F1 API

The Jolpica F1 API, a successor to the Ergast F1 API, can be found here. This is currently the primary data source for all F1 data provided by Lyzer.

Redis

We use Redis to cache data for the current year instead of storing it in a more permanent location, as this data is subject to change. Examples of cached data include:

• Driver Standings
• Constructor Standings
• Races for the season

Lyzer API

The Lyzer API is a C#, ASP.NET powered backend. Its main roles are:

• Providing Formula 1 data for the current year such as:
  • Driver Standings
  • Constructor Standings
  • Races
  • Results
• Providing a RESTful API for the Lyzer Frontend

Lyzer Frontend

The Lyzer Frontend is a React, Typescript, and Vite powered frontend. It is responsible for:

• Displaying Formula 1 data in a user-friendly manner
• Providing a way to interact with the Formula 1 data
• Providing a way to interact with the Lyzer API
