Track Maps

How to use GPS satellite track maps with data overlays to visualize your racing line.

Track Maps give you a bird’s-eye view of your driving. Using GPS coordinates from your telemetry, Braking Lab reconstructs your racing line on a satellite map and overlays data to highlight braking zones, speed, and corner positions.

Map View

The track map displays:

  • Your racing line — The actual path your car followed on track
  • Corner markers — Numbered positions for each turn
  • Braking zone overlays — Color-coded zones showing where you braked
  • Satellite imagery — Real-world satellite view of the circuit

Data Overlays

Toggle different data layers on the map:

LayerWhat It Shows
Racing lineYour driven path colored by speed (green = fast, red = slow)
Braking zonesHighlighted segments where brakes were applied
Corner markersNumbered markers at each turn for reference

Map Controls

  • Zoom — Scroll or pinch to zoom in and out
  • Pan — Click and drag to move around the map
  • Layer toggle — Enable or disable data overlays

Reading the Map

Speed-Colored Racing Line

When the racing line is colored by speed:

  • Green — High speed sections (straights)
  • Yellow — Medium speed (fast corners)
  • Red — Low speed (heavy braking zones)

This instantly shows where you’re fastest and slowest on the track.

Braking Zone Highlights

Braking zones appear as highlighted segments on the racing line, making it easy to see:

  • Where braking begins and ends for each corner
  • How long each braking zone is relative to the corner
  • Whether you’re braking in a straight line or through the turn

Tips

  • Zoom into corners to see the exact braking point and racing line through the turn
  • Compare your line visually — If your lap times differ, check if the racing line changes between laps
  • Use with braking zone data — The map complements the Braking Zones view with visual context
