The replay control bar is the bottom-most control on Track Map — play, speed, lap stepping, and the timeline scrubber. It sits below the driver strip, which handles lap picking and reference ghosts.
It drives synchronized replay for the current lap. It does not include the full lap list or reference ghost controls — use the driver strip (or traces header when the panel is open) for those.

Timeline
The scrubber spans the current lap only:
- Drag to seek — map, driver strip, traces, overlays, and segment tools update together
- Progress fill shows how far through the lap you are
- Lap boundaries come from the lap you picked in the driver strip
For jumping to a different lap, use the driver strip lap picker or Previous lap / Next lap — not the timeline alone.
Timeline ping
Drop a single ping (bookmark) on the timeline so you can jump back to that moment quickly. There is no ping button on the bar — use keyboard shortcuts (also listed under Keyboard Shortcuts in the Track Map header).
| Action | Shortcut |
|---|---|
| Ping the current playhead (replaces any existing ping) | P |
| Jump to the ping | Shift + P, or click the tick on the timeline |
| Clear the ping | ⌥ + P (Mac) / Alt + P (Windows / Linux) |
What you see:
- A thin tick appears on the scrubber at the pinged time
- Click the tick to jump back; click and drag on or near the tick to scrub as usual
- The ping is remembered for this telemetry file in this browser until you clear it
You can press P while scrubbing — the ping is set at the scrubbed time.
Traces toggle
Click Traces on the far right to show or hide the traces panel.
| Traces closed | Traces open |
|---|---|
| Map uses full width | Channel charts on the right |
| Driver strip visible above replay bar | Driver strip hides — lap picker and reference controls move to traces header |
| Full segment mini map in top-right (desktop) | Compact mini map strip beside traces |
Synchronized elements
When replay runs or you scrub, these update together:
- 2D/3D map position and sector labels
- Traces panel cursor and driver cards
- Driver strip live readouts (when driver strip is visible)
- Comparison markers on 2D
- Open overlay popups (tyres, brakes, etc.)
- Segment seeker segment number and delta
Delta vs reference
The replay bar does not show time delta. With a reference loaded, watch:
- Driver strip center pillar — live
+/-seconds vs reference - Delta trace in the traces panel
Suggested workflow
- Pick your lap in the driver strip
- Set speed to 1x from the replay bar
- Play through the lap; pause (Space) before a corner
- Scrub the timeline for frame-by-frame review
- Press
Pto ping a moment you want to revisit, scrub elsewhere, thenShift+P(or click the tick) to return - Open Traces when you need channel charts alongside the map
