These are standard entity IDs. If Home Assistant assigned a different ID, or you renamed an entity, use your existing ID in the examples.
State and attributes
Semantic session lifecycle based on the live Session Status. The pre state usually occurs 60–15 minutes before a session begins. The sensor goes live when the session officially starts, for races, this means lights out, not the beginning of the formation lap.

pre,live,suspended,break,finished,finalised,ended.
Example
live
Typical transitions

After finalised or ended, logic resets and next session begins at pre.
