HUD

This page contains information about the built in HUD overlay when driving. There are also 3rd party apps that offer alternative HUDs.


 * You can toggle most HUD elements by binding buttons in Settings > Controls > Key bindings - Gameplay.
 * You can turn off all or most HUD elements at once in Settings > Gameplay > HUD - "In game overlays": Off, Essentials only, Full.
 * Flags and Penalty messages are a part of "essential" elements and can only be turned off together with all other HUD elements in Settings > Gameplay > HUD - "In game overlays".
 * You can move and resize HUD elements by binding a button in Settings > Controls > Key bindings - Gameplay - "Move & Resize HUD Elements".

Track Map
When track map is enabled you will see a zoomed in image of the track with your own car centered and displayed as a blue triangle. Other cars will show as red triangles.

When Static HUD Track Map is also enabled, you will instead get an image of the entire track.

Input meter
When input meter is toggled, a display on screen will show your wheel and clutch, brake and throttle inputs.

Driver names
When driver names is enabled you will get a floating text over other cars that shows the driver name.

In multiplayer there will also be a number after the name, that indicates that driver's ping to you.

Data Displays
Two types of Data displays are available: Mini data display and Full data display. You can switch between them by binding a button in Settings > Controls > Key bindings - Gameplay - "Toggle speed cluster".

On the Mini data display you see a concise indicator for your car's status. It shows:
 * Current gear
 * Current speed
 * RPM as a bar
 * Tirewear (white for fresh, yellow for worn, orange blinking for very worn)
 * P2P and number of uses left (green for ready to use, grey for not available, red for not ready)
 * DRS
 * Bodywork status (on the left of the icon is a little vertical indicator bar for damage)
 * Engine status (Blinking yellow means its running hot, red means broken)
 * Transmission status
 * Suspension status
 * Fuel left

On the Full data display more info is shown, and you can bind a button to flip the pages in Settings > Controls > Key bindings - Driving - "Data Display Flip Page". Most cars have the same display on the dash too, complete with flip page functionality.

Depending on the car, the full data display looks different and the pages contain different data. In some cars the display matches the one in real life, but in many cars it doesn't.

Start of race
When all lights lit up red and then turn off or turn green, the race starts.

End of race
When the race time is up, the leader gets a checkered flag, and you will too after the leader passes the finish line.

Invalidating lap times
Driving out of Track limits will invalidate current lap time, and if it happens near the end of the circuit the next lap will be invalidated too.
