Leaderboard datasets powering the Racemate stats pages. Each returns a JSON array.

WebMCP — for browser agents

Every Racemate page registers in-page WebMCP tools (navigator.modelContext), so an AI agent driving a supporting browser (Edge 147+, Chrome origin trial) can call these directly instead of scraping the page. All are read-only and backed by the endpoints above:

racemate_search_drivers — search drivers by name or number
racemate_season_standings — championship standings for a season
racemate_race_results — full race results for a season
racemate_list_constructors — constructor career totals

Usage & attribution

Free to use, no API key, no sign-up.
Please attribute Racemate and link to racemate.io wherever you display the data.
Responses are cached at the edge; standings for the current season refresh within ~2 minutes of a result.
Be reasonable with request volume — these are public endpoints, not a high-throughput service. Cache on your side where you can.
Data is provided as-is with no uptime or stability guarantee; endpoint shapes may evolve.
