Source and Data Policy

Public Source Handling

Race context is built from public-facing results, session summaries, team communications, FIA notices, and source links. The product should cite source families and keep editorial conclusions separate from sourced facts.

Timing Data

Public UI should expose derived pace deltas, degradation bands, position-flow summaries, and model judgments. Raw lap-by-lap timing exports, substantial classification databases, and telemetry dumps should stay out of public APIs unless a licence or explicit source permission is secured.

Collection Limits

Collectors should avoid scraping protected pages at scale, copying full articles, republishing official tables, or using source captures as model-training material. Raw source captures are local-only operational inputs and must stay out of public deployment artifacts.

Discrepancies

When sources disagree, official classification and steward documents take precedence. The service should show a discrepancy note instead of silently overwriting the record.
