📄 Description

Summary

This PR adds three new strategy-focused insight windows to the replay tool:

Virtual Position
Undercut / Overcut
DRS Train / Traffic

It also adds shared analysis helpers for strategy views and wires the new windows into the Insights menu.

New Windows

Virtual Position

Estimates where a selected driver would rejoin after a pit stop using a configurable pit-loss assumption and a field reference speed.

Undercut / Overcut

Compares two drivers using current gap, tyre age, recent pace trend, and projected rejoin traffic to support stop-first vs stay-out analysis.

DRS Train / Traffic

Detects multi-car trains, highlights local traffic, and surfaces whether a selected driver is trapped in a DRS queue.

Notes

These are heuristic strategy tools built from the existing telemetry stream payload and do not require new upstream data sources.
