HAYATESWIFT BLADE

疾風

Swift Wind

Precision. Honor. Speed.

Two blades forged in data. Hamon reveals qualifying order through lap time mastery. Tamahagane predicts race destiny through endurance calculations. Both sharpened on the FastF1 API, both bound by samurai precision.

Concept Phase – Blade Being Forged

The Twin Blades

Two models, forged as one system

刃文

Hamon

The Art of Qualifying

Named after the temper line on a katana blade, the pattern that reveals its soul. Predicts best lap times for each driver, revealing the grid order through precision, not guesswork.

Approach

FastF1 API data, lap time analysis, track-specific modeling

In Development
玉鋼

Tamahagane

The Folded Steel

Named after the legendary Japanese steel, folded thousands of times for strength. Predicts race completion times for each driver, revealing finishing order through calculated endurance.

Approach

Race pace modeling, tire strategy simulation, historical race data

The Philosophy

Precision Over Prediction

Rather than predicting winners directly, Hayate calculates what matters: lap times in qualifying, race completion times in the Grand Prix. The order emerges naturally from precision, not from forced classification. Like a blade finding its target through perfect form.

Data as the Forge

FastF1 API provides the raw steel, telemetry, lap times, sector speeds, tire data. Each model folds this data like tamahagane steel, thousands of iterations refining the edge until the blade can cut through uncertainty.

Two Blades, One System

Hamon and Tamahagane work in harmony. Qualifying reveals starting position through single lap mastery. Race predictions demand endurance, strategy, adaptation. Together, they form a complete picture, from lights out to checkered flag.

"A blade is only as sharp as its maker's discipline. The data is forged, the models tempered, the predictions strike true."
