    Can't drag it?
    1. Add a bookmark (Ctrl+D), call it BoxThisLap, and in URL paste what you copied (in Chrome: โ‹ฎ โ†’ Bookmarks โ†’ Bookmark manager โ†’ โ‹ฎ โ†’ Add new bookmark).
  2. Sign in on formula1.com with your F1 TV account (top right, โ€œSign inโ€):
  3. Still on formula1.com, click the BoxThisLap bookmark. It brings you back here: click Sign in to confirm. Done.

The bookmark reads formula1.com's login cookie in your own browser and brings it to this page (in the part of the address that browsers never send to a server).

Or paste the login by hand

Where the token goes: it's saved on this computer in data/f1tv-token.txt and only ever sent to F1's own live timing server. Tokens last a few days from when you type your password; sign in again before each race weekend for a new one, and the live feed reconnects on its own, without a restart.
