Video Analysis lets you watch professional driver laps with live telemetry synced underneath with braking, throttle, steering, speed, and gear selection all moving in real time alongside the onboard footage. Instead of reading data traces alone, you can now see exactly what a pro driver is doing on track and understand visually where your lap time can be found.
Video Analysis is included in your Delta subscription at no extra cost.
What is Video Analysis?
Video Analysis is a feature in Delta that syncs onboard video footage from professional drivers with their telemetry data. Every frame of video is matched to the corresponding data point, so when you see the driver hit the brakes on screen, the braking trace underneath moves at the exact same moment.
This isn’t a YouTube video playing next to a graph. It’s frame-by-frame, input-by-input synchronised playback that you can scrub, pause, loop, and study in detail.
How to Access Video Analysis
- Open Delta and go to the Leaderboard for any car and track combination.
- Look for the video icon next to pro driver lap times. If the icon is there, that lap has Video Analysis available.
- Click the video icon to load the lap.
- The onboard video will play with live telemetry synced underneath showing braking, throttle, steering, speed, and gear selection all update in real time.
How to Use the Playback Controls
View Any Moment
Drag the data controller to jump straight to any corner or section of the lap. No need to watch four minutes of footage to find the one braking zone you’re working on.
Focus on a Sequence
Isolate a specific section of corners and watch it on repeat with the data overlaid. Study how a pro handles a chicane, a series of esses, or a particular braking zone – locked to that sequence so you can watch it as many times as you need.
Watch Full Sectors or Laps
Watch the entire lap flow together, or break it down sector by sector to see how pace is built across the whole circuit.
Enlarge or Minimise
The video window can be enlarged for a closer look at the onboard footage or minimised to focus on the data traces underneath.
What You Can Learn from Video Analysis
Braking Points
Instead of “the reference brakes 15 metres later than you,” you can see the exact visual marker on track where the pro driver lifts off the throttle and hits the brake. A signpost, a kerb edge, a track feature – that’s information you can take straight into your next lap.
Racing Lines
A racing line on a track map shows you where the car goes. Video shows you how it gets there – the angle of approach, how much kerb is used, how early or late the turn-in happens relative to real track features you can recognise in your own driving.
Throttle Application
Watching a pro driver progressively feed the throttle out of a slow corner, and seeing how the car responds, teaches you something a throttle trace alone can’t fully communicate.
Attacking Corners
The relationship between trail braking and car rotation, smoothness versus aggression, how the car settles before the apex, these are visual concepts that become obvious when you watch them happen on screen with the data confirming what you’re seeing.
Which Sims Are Supported?
Video Analysis launched as a beta feature with Le Mans Ultimate and iRacing content first. The library of video-enabled laps is growing continuously as our professional drivers add more car and track combinations each week.
Support for additional sims will be added at a later date.
To see what content is currently available, check the leaderboard for any car and track – if a video icon appears next to a lap, Video Analysis is available for that combination.
What’s Coming Next
In a future update, every Delta subscriber will be able to record and analyse their own laps with video synced to telemetry. Your onboard footage, your inputs, your data, all synchronised and ready to scroll through, compare, and learn from.
This means you’ll be able to watch your own lap side by side with a professional reference video and analyse both together, seeing the exact moments where your driving differs from the pro.
