MMM-Formula1 updates

@stephenmelody hi Stephen,
The api we use only updates the standings after the race. So currently this is not possible.

That said, the api is deprecated end of season. I have my eyes on another api that currently has live timing, and is about to add standings. That would be a bigger project. Perhaps a christmas project.

@cirdan would this be a candidate for the njk template

you format the html in a sep file with loop logic and if/then/else

in your module you collect a data object ( which you do already) and let the njk do the layout work.

@sdetweil hi Sam,

The module allready use a njk template. do you see further improvements or did you just miss the njk usage?

[sdetweil]

@cirdan I looked at your repo, and didn’t see an njk…must be blind this morning…

[cirdan]

@sdetweil lol. But your sugestion was good. 😀

@cirdan Thanks! are you looking at this one: https://openf1.org/?javascript#introduction

[cirdan]

@stephenmelody yep, thats the one. the roadmap page indicates driver standings for the championschip. https://openf1.org/?javascript#roadmap

@cirdan sounds good. The bit I’m looking for is probably the positions call, getting the in-session positions through a race/quali
