Question 1

Is P1 Race Engineer free?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The race engineer itself is free forever on Windows — live AI voice coaching, spotter, brake-point markers, telemetry HUD and lap history, with no account and no card, and coaching sessions are never blocked. The optional P1 Pro adds extras (cloned voices, ghost laps, deep per-corner debrief, brake tones, tactile cues, non-English coaching) — $9.99 for the first month, then $19.99 every 30 days, with a 7-day free Pro trial inside the app. Console telemetry goes through P1's cloud, which does need a free account.

Question 2

Which sims does P1 work with?

Accepted Answer

F1 25, iRacing, Assetto Corsa Competizione, rFactor 2, Le Mans Ultimate, Forza and GT7 — 10 sims in total. P1 bridges the telemetry port automatically and keeps working alongside SimHub and your dashboards.

Question 3

Do I need an account?

Accepted Answer

No. P1 runs locally on your Windows PC, reads your telemetry on your own machine and auto-updates — no account required.

Question 4

What do I need to run it?

Accepted Answer

A Windows 10 or 11 PC and a supported sim with UDP telemetry enabled (for example port 20777 on F1 25). Download P1, run it, and hit Start Coaching.
