Bring your K1 results into Driver OS
Set up result emails, bring in earlier visits and check what was actually imported.
Open Connections
Choose your account menu → Settings → Connections. The page has Email setup, Recent activity and All receipts. Your private forwarding address appears only when your account is eligible and the service can provide it. Never guess an address from your username.
Bring in one result first
- Open an original, supported K1 result email in your trusted inbox.
- Forward that individual message inline to the address shown in Driver OS.
- Open Recent activity and check its status.
- When the result is imported, open Sessions and check its venue, date and laps.
Bundled conversations, bulk forwarding and .eml attachments are not supported. If the driver identity needs review, use the offered review action; a similar name is not proof that a result belongs to you.
Earlier visits and future visits are different
Earlier visits: forward each original result separately. An automatic rule does not import the messages already in your inbox.
Future visits: follow the provider-specific instructions in Email setup. Complete any forwarding verification and use a narrow rule for supported K1 result emails. Do not forward your whole inbox.
Understand the status
- Received means the email arrived. It does not mean a session was saved.
- Imported means a result was saved; check it in Sessions.
- Duplicate means an existing result was recognized, rather than added twice.
- Needs review, unsupported or error means more action or a supported source is needed. Read the explanation before sending it again.
Keep the original email until you have checked the saved result. A venue appearing in the venue list does not guarantee that every email format from that venue is supported.

Demo uses simulated connections
Invited Demo accounts practice setup with demo-results@example.invalid, a non-deliverable example. Simulate first result recognition records a private Demo choice; it does not send or receive email. Do not configure a forwarding rule for Demo. Real forwarding becomes available only after an owner-reviewed conversion and completion of Real setup.

Result email connections
Open the avatar menu → Settings → Manage connections. The full-width Connections page keeps Email setup, Email activity and Received history inside Driver OS, with compact tables showing ten rows per page. Back to Settings returns to account choices; incomplete setup has Back to setup.
Email setup shows your private forwarding address, trusted forwarding inboxes, Google confirmation status and local filter download. Saved changes wait for confirmation. A conflict keeps your draft until you reload saved email settings. Opening or paging the screen never checks mail, retries processing or generates imports. Check now and Open Google confirmation require explicit clicks; finish destination confirmation with Google.
Activity preserves the existing status and consent-based problem reporting. Received history lets you page through account-scoped email metadata without replaying messages. A received email is not yet a saved result, and a saved result is not proof that you reviewed it. Open session links to the recorded result when available.
Choose the path that fits the result
Use automatic forwarding for supported new K1 result emails. Use manual entry when you know the official values but do not have a supported source. Both paths should end in Sessions with the source and original laps still understandable.
Connect supported K1 emails
- Open Connections, then open K1 Email.
- Copy the private forwarding address and add it in Gmail. Return to Driver OS and select Check now, then open the Google confirmation shown to confirm your destination. This check runs when you select it, not automatically.
- Download the two personalized Gmail filters. They are generated in your browser, and Driver OS does not connect to Gmail.
- Import the filter file in Gmail. It contains one exact-sender filter shared by United States and verified UK Canary Wharf results, and one for Canadian results.
- Before saving, verify the United States / UK Canary Wharf sender is member@from.k1speed.com, the Canadian sender is info@k1speed.ca, and both filters use Race Results in the subject, your private forwarding destination, the Kovacs Labs - K1 Results label and Never send it to Spam. Do not select Delete.
- Forward an older original result individually if you want it in the journal. The rule applies only to new messages.
The two exact filters are deliberate. A broader K1 or all-mail rule could forward unrelated private email. Gmail filters do not retroactively forward messages already in the inbox.
Confirm the first successful result
Open the import status, then open Sessions. Confirm the visit date, venue, races and lap evidence before adding context. One source result should create one canonical race rather than a duplicate.
The supported United States and Canadian result formats work across the locations in Driver OS’s maintained K1 location directory, including numbered tracks beyond Track 1. You do not need to visit a location before Driver OS can recognize it. The email must still identify one venue, track and race time clearly and pass the existing sender checks.
Verified UK Canary Wharf Track 1 emails are also supported. They use the existing member@from.k1speed.com sender and Race Results subject rule; no additional forwarding rule is needed. Their printed date uses month/day/year. Driver OS uses Europe/London, including daylight saving, and records their standings as fastest-lap rank rather than a race finish.
Driver OS uses the venue’s local timezone and keeps UK, Canadian and United States ratings separate. An unfamiliar format, ambiguous location or conflicting race details stays visible in Received email history for review. Other UK venues/layouts and other countries’ email systems are not yet verified; worldwide K1 branding does not imply that every result format is supported.
If the email does not state a kart number, race type or racer class, those fields remain unavailable instead of being inferred.
Check import status
K1 email activity is a table of recent loaded emails. Use Previous and Next to move through ten rows at a time, Details for the status explanation, and the result or report action on that row. The page count covers the currently loaded checks, not your complete driving history. On a phone, scroll sideways inside the table to reach every column. Paging does not retry or change an import.
Connections shows your recent imports from receipt through saving and display. For new imports, Results ready means every expected race and numbered lap has been verified in storage. Display confirmation is separate: it is recorded only when the matching lap component renders in your normal Sessions view. It does not mean that you read or reviewed the result.
Earlier imports are identified as earlier history, without rewriting them or pretending they have new completeness checks. Your existing Sessions history remains available. If status checks are unavailable, that does not mean your saved results are missing.
Background checks flag delivery or processing delays and gaps in saved results. The checks read metadata; they do not fetch old emails, run parsers or send real notifications. Open Report a problem to share fixed-choice diagnostic information privately. Your consent allows the owner to inspect that report and its associated import metadata, not your other history. Do not paste original emails or other racers’ names; original-email report uploads are disabled.
In the protected development preview, these checks are read-only. Reports, display acknowledgements, forwarding confirmation, recovery and manual K1 uploads remain paused there. Existing mailbox rules continue to use the production receiver.
Manual entry
Enter only official values you can verify. Leave an unknown field empty instead of estimating it. A manual result should remain visibly different from an automatic supported import.
What Driver OS retains
New imports retain the message identifier, bounded status/reason codes and your minimized timing evidence. Other racers’ names are discarded before durable storage. Driver OS does not retain the forwarded or uploaded email body. The inbound email provider handles delivery under its own terms.
Interrupted, unsupported and duplicate imports
- Repeated supported imports reuse complete matching results. Conflicting evidence is held for review, preserving the saved result.
- If a new upload was interrupted, select the same file again. A complete result is not written twice.
- Needs review, failed earlier imports and unfamiliar formats require a reviewed recovery. Opening the app or changing a parser does not automatically reprocess old mail.
- Report a missing result before forwarding repeatedly. Do not fill gaps with guessed venue, timezone or race details.

Demo Tester connections
In an invited Demo Tester account, Connections contains simulated status cards. There is no functioning inbound results address and no email forwarding, result import, telemetry delivery or analytical sync. Sign-in verification emails still work normally. The instructions below apply to separately approved Real testing capabilities.
Choose how to forward K1 results
Setup offers I’ll forward each result myself or Help me forward results automatically. Copy your private Driver OS forwarding address and send one original Race Results message at a time. If you use a different sending address from your verified sign-in email, add that address through Profile's trusted forwarding controls first.
Gmail reuses the destination confirmation and the two downloadable filters. Keep whole-mail forwarding disabled. Outlook / Hotmail can use two separate rules, each requiring the exact K1 sender and Race Results in the subject. The supported senders are member@from.k1speed.com for US results and info@k1speed.ca for Canadian results.
Yahoo's documented forwarding applies to incoming mail broadly. Driver OS has not verified an iCloud web rule that checks both sender and subject. Use manual forwarding for Yahoo, Apple / iCloud and other providers unless a verified narrow path is available. Never forward your whole mailbox to Driver OS. A saved rule is not proof of delivery; check the imported result in Connections.
Driver OS does not browse your mailbox, request its password or ask for broad email access. An automatic rule remains under your control in your email provider's settings.
Optional sensor tools
In More → Connections → Data Sources, unused Sensor Lab setup is under Optional tools. Existing sensor interest, consent or saved recordings keep Sensor Lab directly visible; a saved source remains accessible after consent is withdrawn. Opening these controls does not enable collection or change consent. Future providers remain under their separate planned-sources section.
