Mission Performance: Automatic and Adaptive Race Pace Progression for Autonomous Racing

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 10, 2026 · UTC

In this paper, we describe the Mission Performance module implemented for a fully autonomous racing car to automatically manage the longitudinal, lateral, and combined performances, aiming to speedup the laptime progression while assuring safety. Motivated by the difficulty and risks of applying the real-time estimation of the grip to critical modules like the motion planner and controller, the Mission Performance guides these modules adapting their target performance instead of changing the vehicle model parameters. The module is formed by pre-defined progressions to warm up the tires at the
