Where do you get the data? I would think it would be licensed so how can you sell it?

> F1 broadcasts their live timing via the SignalR protocol. The endpoint itself is unauthenticated. You can look at FastF1’s implementation of the SignalR client and the respective endpoints which it connects to within the code documentation here FastF1 SignalR client.

Indeed, I'm interested about this, too. About a year ago, I did try to find a good API for F1, not really telemetry, but mostly results and other stats, but couldn't find a good reliable one. The best option seemed to scrape the F1 official website which I didn't really want to do.
