Session Clock
The Session Clock is the dramatic countdown / elapsed / remaining timer that lives on the pit wall display. Find it at Event → Session Clock.
Three states
| State | When | Display |
|---|---|---|
| Pre-session | Before session.startsAt | Countdown to start |
| Live | Between start and end | Elapsed + remaining |
| Closed | After session.endsAt | Final elapsed |
The view auto-detects the state based on the selected session.
Layout
