📄 Description

Tire Life Tracking in Race Replay

Summary

Adds tire life tracking and display to the race replay, showing tire age for each driver in the leaderboard component. Tire data is now collected from the FastF1 API, processed through the telemetry pipeline, and displayed alongside each driver's tire compound indicator.

Changes

Data Collection (`src/f1_data.py`)

Extract TyreLife data from lap telemetry (represents actual tire age in laps)
Add tyre_life_all array to store tire life values per telemetry point
Include tire life in the resampling process to maintain data consistency across all frames
Add tyre_life field to the frame data structure for each driver

UI Display (`src/ui_components.py`)

Display tire age in L{age} format in the leaderboard (e.g., L5 for 5 laps on current tires)
Position tire age text to the left of the tire compound icon
Calculate tire age as tyre_life - 1
(TyreLife represents the lap being driven, not laps completed)
Use white, bold text for improved visibility

Race Replay Integration (`src/interfaces/race_replay.py`)

Process tire life data from frame data
Calculate tire age for each driver at each frame
Pass tire age information to the leaderboard component

Visual Example

The leaderboard now displays:

[Position] [Driver Code] L5 [DRS DOT] [Tire Icon] [Gap]

Where L5 indicates the driver has completed 5 laps on their current set of tires.

Technical Notes

Tire age calculation correctly handles pre-race tire usage (data sourced directly from the FastF1 API)
Defaults to 0 laps if tire life data is unavailable
Debug logging added for the first frame to verify data correctness
