Your race engineer now follows you onto F1. Telemetry and on-track line comparison fully support the 2026 Season Pack, so GO Fast can show you exactly where you're losing time. This guide walks you through the in-game settings that switch telemetry on, for both PC and console.
The setup takes about two minutes. You only need to do it once.
Before you start
- F1 26 installed and updated (2026 Season Pack)
- GO Fast running on your PC
- On console: your console and your PC on the same Wi-Fi or network
The settings at a glance
Whichever platform you play on, F1 26 needs these six values. The steps below show you where to find each one.
| Setting | Value (PC) | Value (Console) |
|---|---|---|
| UDP Telemetry | On | On |
| UDP Broadcast Mode | Off | On (recommended) |
| UDP IP Address | 127.0.0.1 | 127.0.0.1 (any, ignored) |
| UDP Port | 20777 | 20777 |
| UDP Send Rate | 60 Hz | 60 Hz |
| UDP Format | 2026 | 2026 |
PC setup (Steam, Epic, EA app)
- From the F1 26 main menu, open Settings.
- Go to Telemetry Settings, then scroll to UDP Telemetry Settings at the bottom of the list.
- Set UDP Telemetry to On.
- Set UDP Broadcast Mode to Off.
- Set UDP IP Address to 127.0.0.1 (this points the data at GO Fast on the same PC).
- Set UDP Port to 20777.
- Set UDP Send Rate to 60 Hz.
- Set UDP Format to 2026.
- Back out of the menus to save. You're done.
Console setup (PlayStation, Xbox)
On console, GO Fast still runs on your PC, so the game has to send telemetry across your network to that PC. There are two ways to set this up. Both need your console and PC on the same Wi-Fi or network.
Method 1 (recommended, easiest) uses Broadcast Mode, so you don't need to find or type any IP address. Method 2 sends the data to your PC's specific IP, which is worth trying if Method 1 doesn't pick up any data.
Method 1: Broadcast Mode (recommended)
- From the main menu, open Settings, then Telemetry Settings, then UDP Telemetry Settings.
- Set UDP Telemetry to On.
- Set UDP Broadcast Mode to On. This sends telemetry to every device on your network, so GO Fast picks it up without you needing an IP address.
- Leave UDP IP Address at its default (127.0.0.1 is fine). With Broadcast Mode on, this field is ignored.
- Set UDP Port to 20777.
- Set UDP Send Rate to 60 Hz.
- Set UDP Format to 2026.
- Back out to save.
Method 2: Direct IP (if Method 1 shows no data)
Some networks block broadcast traffic. If GO Fast stays blank with Method 1, point the game straight at your PC instead.
First, find your PC's local IP address:
- Windows: open the Start menu, type cmd, press Enter, then type
ipconfigand press Enter. Your address is listed as IPv4 Address (it usually starts with 192.168). - Write this number down. You'll enter it in the game.
Then, in F1 26 on your console:
- Open Settings, then Telemetry Settings, then UDP Telemetry Settings.
- Set UDP Telemetry to On.
- Set UDP Broadcast Mode to Off.
- Set UDP IP Address to your PC's local IP (the number you found above). It cannot stay at 127.0.0.1 for this method: that address means "this device", so on console it would point back at the console itself rather than at GO Fast on your PC.
- Set UDP Port to 20777.
- Set UDP Send Rate to 60 Hz.
- Set UDP Format to 2026.
- Back out to save.
Check that it's working
- Keep GO Fast open on your PC.
- Jump into any session in F1 26 (Time Trial is the quickest) and drive out of the pits.
- GO Fast should start showing live telemetry within a few seconds. If it does, you're set for the season.
Not seeing any data?
Run through these in order:
- Double-check the format: UDP Format must be 2026. An older format is the most common reason GO Fast stays blank.
- Confirm the port: it should read 20777 on both the game and GO Fast.
- PC players: the IP address must be 127.0.0.1.
- Console players: make sure the console and PC are on the same network. Note that some guest or public networks block telemetry traffic.
- Console players, still blank on Method 1? Some networks block broadcast traffic. Switch to Method 2 above: set UDP Broadcast Mode to Off and enter your PC's local IP in UDP IP Address. Recheck that IP if it stops working later, since it can change after a reboot.
- Firewall: if your PC firewall prompts you, allow GO Fast to receive connections.
- Restart: close and reopen GO Fast, then re-enter the session.
