A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides Formula One racing data. This package exposes various tools for querying F1 data including event schedules, driver information, telemetry data, and race results.

## Features

- **Event Schedule**: Access the complete F1 race calendar for any season
- **Event Information**: Detailed data about specific Grand Prix events
- **Session Results**: Comprehensive results from races, qualifying sessions, sprints, and practice sessions
- **Driver Information**: Access driver details for specific sessions
- **Performance Analysis**: Analyze a driver's performance with lap time statistics
- **Driver Comparison**: Compare multiple drivers' performances in the same session
- **Telemetry Data**: Access detailed telemetry for specific laps
- **Championship Standings**: View driver and constructor standings for any season

## Installation

In a `uv` managed python project, add to dependencies by:

```bash
uv add f1-mcp-server
```

Alternatively, for projects using `pip` for dependencies:
```bash
pip install f1-mcp-server
```

To run the server inside your project:

```bash
uv run f1-mcp-server
```

Or to run it globally in isolated environment:

```bash
uvx f1-mcp-server
```

To install directly from the source:

```bash
git clone https://github.com/Machine-To-Machine/f1-mcp-server.git
cd f1-mcp-server
pip install -e .
```

## Usage

### Command Line

The server can be run in two modes:

**Standard I/O mode** (default):

```bash
uvx run f1-mcp-server
```

**SSE transport mode** (for web applications):

```bash
uvx f1-mcp-server --transport sse --port 8000
```

### Python API

```python
from f1_mcp_server import main

# Run the server with default settings
main()

# Or with SSE transport settings
main(port=9000, transport="sse")
```

## Acknowledgements

This project leverages `FastF1`, an excellent Python package for accessing Formula 1 data. We are grateful to its maintainers and contributors.

This project was inspired by [rakeshgangwar/f1-mcp-server](https://github.com/rakeshgangwar/f1-mcp-server) which was written in TypeScript. The `f1_data.py` module was mostly adapted from their source code.
