Late Brake: How late can you brake at Monza, Spa and Monaco?

Hey Product Hunt 👋 I’m Ayush!

I wanted a racing game I could open in a browser tab and be on a real circuit a few seconds later. Most games with real tracks are big downloads, and most browser racing games use made-up tracks. So I built Late Brake.

The six circuits are drawn from the real tracks’ outlines at true scale, and the whole game is about braking points: when to brake, how late you can leave it, and how much speed you carry out of the corner. Braking boards count down at 150, 100, and 50 metres before every big stop, and you can switch on a racing line (green to accelerate, yellow to lift, red to brake).

Who it’s for:
→ anyone who watches Grand Prix racing and wants to drive Monaco or Spa themselves
→ anyone with five minutes and a browser tab
→ anyone who can’t leave a lap alone when it’s 0.2 seconds off gold

What’s in it:
🏁 6 real circuits: Monza, Spa, Silverstone, Monaco, Interlagos and Spielberg
👻 time trials against your own ghost, with sector times and a live delta
🏆 click any time on a leaderboard to race that driver’s ghost
🤖 races against AI drivers on easy, medium or hard
🌐 online races with up to 3 friends
🥇 bronze, silver and gold medal times on every circuit
📅 a daily challenge with its own leaderboard
🎮 keyboard, gamepad, or on-screen pedals on your phone

Start time trials with one click, no account needed. Sign in with Google to race, play the daily challenge, and put your laps on the leaderboards.

One warning: track limits are strict, like the real thing. Put all four wheels over the white line, and the lap is deleted. In races, you get strikes, then 5-second penalties. Monza’s chicanes will test your patience 😅

It’s free. The only thing for sale is cosmetic car colours, if you’d like to support it.

I’d love your honest feedback on:

Handling: on a keyboard or your phone’s pedals, does the car feel twitchy, slidey, or about right?
Track limits: fair, or too harsh?
