Priority fixes for formula1.com
Ordered by impact and by how common each practice is among peers.
Priority 1 · Accelerate
No render-blocking scripts in <head>
Observed: The homepage <head> loaded 1 external script without async or defer.
Why it matters: A plain <script src> in the head stops the browser from showing anything until that file has downloaded and run.
What to do: Add defer to scripts that need the DOM, async to independent ones such as analytics, or move them to the end of the body.
On Next.js: Use the next/script component with an appropriate loading strategy.
43% of Sports Broadcast & Fantasy Games peers do this. Limit: Based on the homepage HTML delivered to an automated client; scripts that run later were not executed.
Guide: Control Third-Party Scripts Before They Control Your Page
Priority 2 · Accelerate
Offscreen images lazy-loaded
Observed: The homepage had 79 images and none used loading="lazy".
What to do: Add loading="lazy" to images below the fold. Do not lazy-load the main hero image, because that delays the largest visible element.
56% of Sports Broadcast & Fantasy Games peers do this.
Priority 3 · Harden
Certificate lifetime of 100 days or less
Observed: The certificate from Amazon had a 197-day validity period, longer than the 100-day maximum that applies from March 2027.
What to do: Move to automated issuance and renewal now, while you still have time to test it.
70% of Sports Broadcast & Fantasy Games peers do this.
Priority 4 · Accelerate
HTTP/3 advertised
Observed: The homepage did not advertise HTTP/3 through an Alt-Svc header.
What to do: Turn on HTTP/3 at your CDN. Browsers fall back to HTTP/2 automatically, so the risk is low.
On Amazon CloudFront: Select HTTP/3 in the distribution's supported HTTP versions.
34% of Sports Broadcast & Fantasy Games peers do this.
