Session mode activates when you open Coach on a Race, Qualifying, or Practice session page.
Coach reads that session's stored data — standings, laps, incidents, and full XML when available.
What you can ask
Race summary
- Final position, gaps, and key moments
- Lap time progression and consistency
- Sector deltas vs rivals
Incidents and penalties
- Collision and off-track events from session data
- Penalties and position impacts
- Lap 1 incidents and first-lap dynamics
Stints and strategy
- Pit stop timing and stint lengths
- Tyre wear and compound changes
- Fuel and virtual energy usage (when in XML)
Rivals and gaps
- Gap to the car ahead or behind
- Who you gained or lost positions to
- Head-to-head vs specific drivers in the session
Community comparison
When community data exists for the same track, car, and conditions:
- How your pace compares to other MyLMU drivers
- Percentile-style context for lap times
- Same analysis foundation as Deeper Analytics
Linked telemetry
If telemetry files are linked to this session, Coach can reference them — though deep trace analysis works best in Telemetry mode.
Example prompts
- "Summarize this race — what went well and what cost me time?"
- "Why did I lose positions in the final stint?"
- "Compare my pace to the community for this session"
- "What incidents affected my result?"
- "How was my Lap 1 compared to the field?"
Data limitations
| Situation | Coach behavior |
|---|---|
| Driver swap session | Some fields (tyre wear, fuel, speed traces) may be missing — see Driver swaps |
| No full XML | Coach uses stored summary data; may not have stint-level detail |
| Practice / Qualifying | Focuses on lap times and sectors rather than race incidents |
Tips
- Session analysis typically costs 28–88 CC — narrower questions save credits
- Open the session page before opening Coach so context attaches correctly
- For corner-level driving feedback, open the linked telemetry file instead
