Browse historical results

Use the Archive view in Results to browse published classifications from previous seasons. It is useful for checking a finishing order, grid movement, points or qualifying times without loading a full replay.

Before you start

Update F1 Sensor and reload the dashboard so it uses the matching bundled cards. You need a working F1 Sensor entry and access to the historical results provider. F1TV Auth and an active live session are not required.

Open a classification

  1. Add the F1 Results card through Edit dashboard → Add card, or open an existing Results card.
  2. Select Archive in the card.
  3. Choose a season using the year controls, then select a Grand Prix and an available session.
  4. Wait for the classification. Use Refresh to request an updated result if the source has published a correction.

Race and Sprint classifications show race fields such as grid, laps, finish status and points. Qualifying uses position, driver and Q1–Q3 times. Some sessions or older seasons have incomplete information; an empty field does not mean the driver had a zero time.

Opening Archive fetches the selected historical data on demand. It does not load every season in the background or start a replay.

Open Archive by default

Paste this into a manual dashboard card. It opens the 2024 season's archive and lets you select an event and session:

type: custom:f1-last-race-results-card
default_scope: archive
show_archive: true
history_year: 2024
history_entry_id: auto
theme_mode: auto

With several F1 Sensor entries, select the intended sources in the card editor and set Archive config entry id when necessary. An integration entry ID is different from a sensor entity ID. Keep custom entity names already used by your dashboard. See Results configuration for all display options.

Archive or Replay?

ChooseWhat happens
Results → ArchiveDisplays a published classification. Other live entities continue following their existing session.
Replay Control → LoadLoads archived timing for playback through supported F1 entities and automations.
Weekend Hub → TelemetryCompares selected laps from the replay you have already loaded.

Selecting an Archive event does not load it into Weekend Hub. To analyse its timing there, select and load that session in Replay Mode and follow the analysis walkthrough.

When a result is missing

  • No events or sessions: check the year and try another published session. Practice classifications are not supplied by this archive; historical Race, Sprint and qualifying availability varies.
  • An error with Try again: retry the request after checking connectivity. Reinstalling the card cannot make an unavailable provider respond.
  • A result without lap progression: classification and lap-by-lap coverage are separate. A Sprint result does not guarantee a position chart or telemetry.
  • Hidden results: check the configured spoiler protection. Reveal results only when you are ready.
  • Archive is absent: check the installed version, show_archive, and the card loading checks.

If you previously installed a separate Session Archive card, use the compatibility guide. Existing configurations continue to open Archive.
