Live Swap Long (hours) endurance racing strategy widget

With all the telemetry you're gathering, if you're in an endurance race, you're thinking to yourself....can I save fuel and eliminate a planned stop? Should I double stint these tires? Maybe just the fronts or the rears? How many seconds is a pit stop going to take (pit in, stopped, pit out). It would be helpful if there was a multiple choice strategy widget that I could access that has been monitoring telemetry and could offer me strategy alternatives. Let's say I'm doing a 6 hour race and I can input into the widget I want to do it on 5 stops. Have an ongoing calculation as to whether we're going to make it, looking at fuel consumption, projected lap count and time for the leader...anything relevant, and advise the driver what has to be done to hit that target such as save fuel, or push or not, and what the target pit lap should be, also measuring and keeping track of pit in and pit out time as well as stop time. Basically something that can tell the driver in real time how they should drive and when they should pit to hit a strategy. Can also offer alternate strategy, like add a stop so you can push, etc.
