The Tour de France is on it's third stage and we finally compiled a first version of our live tracker app. The recent track is plotted on a Google map and live data (such as eart beat, speed, stress points, distance, power and current position) will be displayed next to each driver.

Position data is currently computed by driver's distance cover. But hopefully the exact GPS dataset will be online soon! Thanks to SRM for their great technical work!

For those not watching the race live, can you add an input box that accepts the distance remaining in the race and plots that point on the map? This would let us quickly locate the current position of the race on the map when the distance remaining is shown on TV.

Am I just stupid or is it only poss. to track the chosen 10 drivers selected in the box alreday or is there a chance to change drivers somewhere? Ta, Mart

Only the following driver are equiped with SRM's telemetric sensors: Ronny Scholz, Sebastian Lang, Michael Rogers, Bram Tankink, Beat Zberg, Christian Vandevelde, Jens Voigt,Ralph Grabsch, Patrick Sinkewitz, Cédric Vasseur, Francisco Ventoso. Click one of them to follow his' position.

Very cool app.

Are you sure that cyclist F (Voigt) is not swapped with D (Tankink ). Voigt is currently in a break but it shows as it is Tankink

Anyway, great work
