Step 3: Using the program

All you need to do is:
  1. Copy your API key from https://www.f1laps.com/telemetry/ and add it in the API key field in the app (required on Windows only)
  1. Make sure that the IP address shown in the program (in the screenshot above that's "192.168.4.90") matches the "UDP IP Address" value in the F1 game telemetry settings
  1. Set the "UDP Format" value to the year of the game you're playing. For instance, if you play F1 2021, set it to 2021. If you play F1 22, set it to 2022.
