F1 historical data API

Public, no-authentication REST endpoints for F1 race data: results, standings, lap times, tyre stints, pit stops, and qualifying laps. Results and standings extend back to 1950; richer session fields depend on era and ingest. See the coverage table below. Free to use, no API key required.

✦

No authentication required. All Historical API endpoints are public. No Authorization header, no token, no sign-up needed.

Response envelope

Every response wraps its payload in an RHData object. All scalar values (numbers, years, positions, milliseconds) are serialised as strings.

Field	Type	Description
`RHData.series`	`string`	Always "f1"
`RHData.url`	`string`	Canonical URL of this request
`RHData.limit`	`string`	Page size used (serialised as string)
`RHData.offset`	`string`	Page offset used (serialised as string)
`RHData.total`	`string`	Total records matching the query (serialised as string)
`RHData.<Table>`	`object`	Data payload: SeasonTable, RaceTable, DriverTable, ConstructorTable, CircuitTable, or StandingsTable

ℹ

Time formats: Lap and sector times use M:SS.mmm (or SS.mmm if under 1 minute). Race winner absolute time: H:MM:SS.mmm. Gap to leader: +S.mmm.

Data coverage

Field	Type	Description
`dataQualityTier`	`"1"–"4"`	1=1950–94 (results-only) · 2=1995–2017 · 3=2018–22 · 4=2023+ (full telemetry ingest)
`Laps / Stints`	`2019+`	Lap times, sector splits, tyre compounds, and stints require per-session ingest. Pre-2019 sessions return empty arrays.
`QualifyingLaps`	`2019+`	Flying laps from Q1/Q2/Q3 (and sprint qualifying SQ1/SQ2/SQ3). Empty arrays for pre-2019 sessions.
`FastestLap`	`varies`	Lap number, time, and average speed when available. Rank is not stored.
`PitStop.time`	`optional`	Time-of-day of pit entry. Omitted when not stored.
`carNumber`	`optional`	Derived from driver's current number. Omitted for pre-modern seasons or drivers without a permanent number.

When data becomes available

Typically, as measured at the 2026 US Grand Prix (these are not guarantees):

Race per-lap rows for every driver (position, lap and sector times, compound, tyre life, gaps) are written lap by lap during the race and are complete about 1 minute after the flag.
Race and qualifying classifications appear about 20 minutes after the session.
Practice laps appear about 30 minutes after the session.
Race weather is stored per lap (/v1/data/races/:raceId/weather). Practice and qualifying weather is not stored historically; subscribe to weather.data live.

Pagination

All list endpoints support ?limit= (max 100) and ?offset=. Lap time, pit stop, stint, and qualifying lap endpoints default to limit=100; all others default to limit=30. The total field in the envelope reflects the count before pagination.

Note on lap pagination: /laps paginates by lap number, not by row. Each page contains complete timing data for all drivers on those laps.

`DriverStandings[].Constructors`	`array`	Array containing the driver's current constructor

Constructor standings

GET/v1/historical/:season/constructorStandings

Constructor championship standings. Engine-suffix duplicates (e.g. McLaren-Mercedes and McLaren-Renault for the same lineage) are automatically collapsed into a single entry. Wins are aggregated across all constructor variants sharing a lineageId.

Field	Type	Description
`:season`	`integer`	Season year
`?limit`	`integer`	Page size (default 30, max 100)
`?offset`	`integer`	Page offset
