For queries concerning a whole season, or final standings, the round element may be omitted. For example:<\/p>\n

http:\/\/ergast.com\/api\/f1\/2008\/...<\/code><\/p>\n

For queries concerning the whole series both the round and the season elements may be omitted. For example:<\/p>\n

http:\/\/ergast.com\/api\/f1\/...<\/code><\/p>\n

To specify the current season the <season><\/code> field may be set to “current”. To specify the previous or next race within a season the <round><\/code> field may be set to “last” or “next” respectively. For example:<\/p>\n

http:\/\/ergast.com\/api\/f1\/2005\/last\/...<\/code>
\nhttp:\/\/ergast.com\/api\/f1\/current\/next\/...<\/code><\/p>\n

XML is returned by default or when “.xml<\/code>” is appended to URLs. JSON is obtained by appending “.json<\/code>” to URLs. JSONP is obtained by appending “.json<\/code>” and a query parameter named “callback<\/code>” which must specify a valid Javascript function name or object property function reference. For example:<\/p>\n http:\/\/ergast.com\/api\/f1\/drivers.json?callback=myParser<\/a><\/code><\/p>\n XML responses conform to the Ergast Motor Racing XML Schema<\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/a>Response paging<\/h3>\n The number of results that are returned can be controlled using a limit<\/code> query parameter, up to a maximum value of 100. Please use the smallest value that your application needs. If not specified, the default value is 30.<\/p>\n An offset into the result set can also be specified using an offset<\/code> query parameter. If not specified the default offset is zero. For example, the following URL returns the third page of driver information containing ten entries per page:<\/p>\n http:\/\/ergast.com\/api\/f1\/drivers?limit=10&offset=20<\/a><\/code><\/p>\n The total number of available results is indicated by a total<\/code> attribute in the root element of the response.<\/p>\n <\/a>Caching<\/h3>\n To improve the performance of your applications and to minimise the load on the API server please implement caching, either on your server and\/or in your applications.<\/p>\n <\/a>Database Image and Runtime<\/h3>\n The database image<\/a> is published after each race and can be used to run your own server using the Ergast runtime<\/a>.
