Description

The Ergast API has been a great API for fetching Formula 1 data that is also free of charge, but one of the downsides to it is the lag between the race ending and the results being published. This removes some of the potential instant gratification that happens when the race ends, and is confusing when it takes potentially hours for results to render.

Expectations

Explore different APIs/options for Formula 1 results. Premium options are potentially acceptable. Web scraping could be a feasible option.
