BERACE
A small technical team can build a useful predictions-and-leaderboard replacement (web-only) in a few weeks, but reproducing BERACE's live telemetry, translated radio, native apps, polish and existing user base would be costly—so building a narrow self-hosted alternative is realistic but not a full replacement.

No published price to break even against.
No open-source build does this yet
Nothing published replaces this one, so a replacement starts from an empty file. Here is what it would have to cover.
What a replacement has to do
- Allow users to submit predictions for race events, compute per-event leaderboards, create/join private teams with private leaderboards, and view basic live results/standings updates.
What it still won’t have
- Live translated driver radio feed
- Real-time interactive track map and live tyre/weather telemetry
- Advanced driver & track statistics and community trends feeds
- Polished native iOS/Android apps and existing user community/scale
- Event activation tooling and customization services
What remains hard
- Product polish and ongoing maintenance
First-year cost
No published price
BERACE does not publish a price we could read, so there is nothing to compare against. What building costs is below.

The verdict above measures whether you could build it. This one is only about money.
Runnable build prompt
Build a minimal BERACE-like web app using Node.js (Express), Postgres, and a React + Tailwind frontend served from Vercel or Netlify. Core features in scope: user sign-up (email + OAuth), create/join teams, submit predictions against a race schedule, close submissions by scheduled deadline, background worker to compute event leaderboards and update user/team rankings, mobile-responsive UI for submitting picks and viewing leaderboards, and simple email notifications for deadlines/results. Out of scope: live telemetry (track map, tyre/weather), translated radio streams, native mobile apps, and event activation/custom branding. Include input validation, error handling, database migrations, a CI pipeline, basic unit/integration tests for API and leaderboard logic, and Docker-based deployment instructions.
How we checked
How the score was reached
- Partly verdict base52
- 3/3 assessment runs agreed+4
- Evidence score56
The base comes from the verdict. Everything under it is a check that either happened or did not, and each one is a fact frozen in this record rather than a judgement made at render time - so the same evidence always produces the same number.
