## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability espn-f1-race-results-by-date-0008ab00

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need structured F1 race finishing order data sourced directly from ESPN's public scoreboard, including driver positions, winner flags, and session state, for a specific calendar date. Prefer it over scraping or unofficial sources when you need clean JSON output with minimal latency for post-race analysis or sports update workflows.

## Known failure modes

- No race on the requested date returns an empty races array
- Race exists but results not yet published returns partial or empty results array
- Invalid date format returns a validation error
- ESPN source API is unavailable causing upstream failure
- Date too far in the past or future may return no data

## How this service works

ESPN Formula 1 race list for one date with the finishing order of the first drivers (position, driver name, winner flag) and session state, from ESPN's public site JSON. Results only as ESPN lists them; a race with no published order returns the entries it has.

## Output

A JSON object containing the race date, count of races found, and an array of race objects. Each race includes the race name, session state (e.g. 'post'), status (e.g. 'Final'), start time in UTC, the source ESPN URL, a checked-at timestamp, and a results array of drivers with their finishing position, name, and a winner boolean flag. If no published order exists yet, the endpoint returns whatever entries ESPN has available.
