3D track maps

3D track maps that connect telemetry to the corner

Charts explain what the car and driver did. A track map explains where it happened. Hotlap.ai combines 3D circuit maps with synchronized telemetry so brake release, throttle pickup, steering, speed, and AI findings are tied to the exact part of the lap.

Map position synced with charts

The 3D map follows the same cursor as the telemetry charts. When you inspect a speed drop, delta loss, brake spike, or steering correction, the map shows the corresponding position on the circuit.

Telemetry coloring and markers

Telemetry coloring helps make fast and slow sections easier to scan. Sector markers, corner context, and AI finding markers help drivers connect a chart issue to a physical braking zone, apex, or exit.

Useful for visual learners

Many sim racers learn faster when a trace is connected to a corner shape. The map view makes it easier to understand line, minimum speed, rotation, and exit speed without relying only on stacked charts.

How to use the map during review

A focused path from session data to the next change you can test on track.

  1. Step 1

    Find the corner on the map

    Start from the 3D map when a chart alone does not make the problem obvious. The cursor links the trace to a physical point on the circuit.

  2. Step 2

    Read the corner phase

    Use the map to understand whether the issue happened before turn-in, during rotation, near apex, or on corner exit.

  3. Step 3

    Use markers for context

    Sector, corner, and AI finding markers help you avoid guessing which part of the track a chart spike represents.

  4. Step 4

    Confirm with channels

    Once the map shows where the issue happened, confirm it with speed, brake, throttle, steering, gear, and delta traces.

Best used when location matters more than another chart

This page is about spatial understanding. It should help drivers who know there is a loss but need to see where it happens on the circuit and which phase of the corner caused it.

The map is especially useful for line, rotation, apex, and exit-speed issues because those problems are easier to understand when the track shape is visible.

Questions drivers ask

Why use a 3D track map for telemetry?

A 3D track map makes it easier to connect a data problem to a driving problem. Instead of only seeing a delta change, you can see whether it happened at braking, rotation, apex, or exit.

Do AI findings appear on the map?

Yes. AI finding markers can be shown with the map and chart context so drivers can jump from a coaching point to the relevant part of the lap.
