PitWall is a native macOS app that brings live Formula 1 data directly to your menu bar β no browser tabs, no distractions, just instant race data one click away. Whether it's a chaotic wet practice session, the tension of qualifying, or the Grand Prix itself, PitWall keeps you connected to the grid without sacrificing screen real estate. Why today? Because FP1 in Melbourne kicks off the 2026 season tomorrow, and there's no better time to have PitWall ready in your menu bar. π¦πΊ
Hey Product Hunt! π
I'm Daniel, and I built PitWall because I wanted to follow F1 sessions without switching away from my work. The official app is heavy, the browser tabs are distracting β I just wanted the data, fast, native, always there.
The timing couldn't be better: the Australian GP starts tomorrow and FP1 is the perfect moment to give it a try. I'd love to hear your feedback β this is v1.0 and there's a lot more I want to build.
Drop your questions below, happy to chat! π
The launch timing is perfect. Launching the day before FP1 in Melbourne is exactly the right move and honestly the best possible product demo you could ask for.
The official F1 app has always been too heavy for what most fans actually need during a session. A native menu bar app that gives you live timing without pulling you out of your workflow is the version I've wanted for years. Qualifying and race day, with this in the corner of my screen, are going to be different experiences.
Long-standing F1 fan here, and the 2026 season is one of the most anticipated in years with the new regulations. Would love to see sector times and tyre compound data included in a future version. Oh, and if I can ask, a Windows version too! Congrats on the launch and on the timing! ποΈ
Sending this to a F1 fan. From what I see, the service is free, right? IF that is correct, do you plan to monetize it somehow?
Haha! Perfect timing for the launch! I will definitely check the product this weekend
