Briefing, Final Lap and Race Finished

Know which lifecycle events the engineer can announce and where routine reports stop.

0.7.2-beta37 · code95 · Development candidate, not released Public Beta. Physical PS5/PS5 Pro and sustained GT7 checks remain open.

Where: Race callouts → Race events & strategy.

How to use it

  1. Pre-race briefing and possible rain is enabled by default under Strategy. Expect only available, qualified pre-race facts; possible rain is not live weather radar or guaranteed rain.
  2. Final lap is enabled by default under Safety. It refers to a confirmed fixed-lap final lap. Timed-race Final Lap is deliberately excluded.
  3. Race finished is enabled by default under Safety and requires trusted terminal race evidence. A practice exit or missing result is not automatically a race finish.
  4. Keep FINISH distinct: it ends your overall LapMind driving period at your request; it is not the automatic Race Finished event.

Operating principle and expected output

Fixed Final Lap owns its entry boundary; routine Summary is excluded there. Trusted race finish purges/cancels pending routine narration so stale lap messages do not trail the finish. Voice and semantic haptics retain independent eligibility.

When output is absent or limited

Disabled child/parent settings, unavailable pre-race facts or untrusted lifecycle evidence can yield silence. Timed duration alone is not a reason to invent a Final Lap. Never rely on audio as the only safety cue.
