F-1 Pilot is a Formula 1 racing game for the PC Engine, one that depicts the racing from the driver's seat of the vehicle. The player is able to select a car before a race, but they all appear to be functionally identical except for the color. The player can also choose to have engine noises or BGM (Background music), but not both. Selecting either of the BGM modes will disable all sound effects from the game, including tire screeching and crashing noises.
