Racing only seems to work if a driver is selected #148

Hi! It appears that the integration only works for racing leagues if a driver is chosen at setup.

Desired Behavior: If no driver is selected, the integration would display the 1st and 2nd place drivers, regardless who they are.

Current Behavior: If no driver is selected when setting up the integration, the API message indicated no competition is scheduled, so nothing ever is displayed.

I tested with Nascar and Indycar, so I don't know if this behavior is consistent across all racing types. I also don't know what happens if you do select a driver, but they don't actually participate in a particular race.

I'm not sure if this is a bug or an enhancement request. Thanks!

What are you putting in for Team/Athlete? You should use the wildcard indicator * to get it to match to any driver and show the first/second place driver.

I've confirmed * works for F1 and NASCAR. What value do you have for the Team/Athlete?

I reconfigured using the wildcard (*) and it work as expected. Thanks! I may have missed it, but I don't recall seeing that in the documentation.

Glad it is working. I will add a link in the Team ID section to reference the Wildcard section.
