Reference-Point Worksheet
The reference-point worksheet is your private notebook for one turn. For each corner you can write down the markers you drive to and pin each one on the track map, so the plan for a turn lives right beside the telemetry you drove it on.
The six reference points
A worksheet has one entry for each of the six points you move through in a corner, listed in the order you drive them:
| # | Point | What it marks |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Accelerate | Where you get back to power on the way in |
| 2 | Brake start | Where you get on the brakes |
| 3 | Turn-in | Where you start turning |
| 4 | End of braking | Where you come off the brakes |
| 5 | Apex | Where you clip |
| 6 | Exit | Where you unwind onto the straight |
Each point holds a short marker note — a cue like "3 board", "second cone", or "crest" — and an optional pinned position on the track map. You can fill in just a note, just a pin, or both, and you can leave any point blank.
Your worksheet is yours
Reference-point worksheets are private to the account that wrote them. Nobody else sees your worksheet, and you never see anyone else's.
Where the worksheet appears
The Reference points panel sits under the track map in the analysis cockpit, next to the Coaching lines panel. It shows whenever the session resolves to a track layout with turns — both when you upload a telemetry file and when you reopen a saved session. A session at an unrecognized venue, or one that has not matched a layout yet, shows a short note instead of a worksheet, because there is no turn to file points under.
Pick the Turn you are working on from the dropdown at the top of the panel. The worksheet and its map markers follow the turn you select.
Writing a marker note
Type your cue into the note field for a point and move on — the note saves when you leave the field or press Enter. A note is a short marker, not a paragraph; there is a length limit and the panel tells you if you reach it.
Pinning a point on the map
You can pin where a reference point is in two ways:
- Pin on the map. Click Pin next to a point, then click the spot on the track map. The point is pinned there and the panel shows a Pinned tag.
- Pin from the scrub cursor. Scrub the cockpit cursor to the place on the lap you mean, then click From cursor. The point is pinned where the cursor sits. This is handy when you can see the moment in the telemetry but not the exact spot on the map.
Zoom in before you pin
Scroll to zoom and drag to pan the map before you pin, so you can place the point precisely. Points stay attached to the track as you pan and zoom.
Pinned points draw as small numbered markers on the map — 1 through 6 in the order above, with the brake and exit points in their own colours. Only the turn you have open is shown, so the map stays readable.
To move a pin, click Re-pin and place it again. To remove just the pin and keep the note, click Clear pin. Clearing one point never touches the others.
When the worksheet is unavailable
The panel explains itself rather than offering something that cannot work:
- "Match this session to a track layout with annotated turns" — the session has not matched a track layout, or the matched layout has no turns to file points under.
- From cursor is disabled when the telemetry has no usable GPS at the cursor, so there is no position to pin. You can still write notes and pin directly on the map wherever the track draws.
Chicanes keep separate worksheets
Where a layout splits a chicane into halves (T10A and T10B), each half is its own turn with its own worksheet, so the two never share notes or pins.
