Sim Racing Tools That Still Support Older F1 Games (F1 24 and Earlier)

By the PickMerit teamUpdated 2026-07-244 tools comparedHuman-verified

If you still race F1 24, F1 23 or an even older Codemasters/EA F1 game, a tool that only advertises the current title is a gamble. The filter here is strict: every tool below names a specific F1 game version older than F1 25 in its own supported-games list, so support is stated rather than assumed. The data spans a wide range: one lists every F1 game from 2012 through 2025, one covers F1 2020 through F1 25, one names F1 2018 and F1 2019 specifically, and one lists F1 24 alongside F1 25 and F1 26. Tools that list only F1 25, or just say F1 without a year, are left out even though they may well work, and the F1 25 guide covers that broader set.
