1. Load a Session

A session is the entry point for all data in tif1. You specify the year, the Grand Prix, and the session type.

2. Access Lap Data

The first time you access .laps, tif1 fetches the data in parallel. Subsequent calls are instant due to the caching layer.

3. analyze a specific driver

You can easily drill down into data for a specific driver using their 3-letter code.

4. deep dive into telemetry

Telemetry provides high-frequency data (Speed, RPM, Throttle, etc.) for every moment of a lap.

5. list available data

Not sure what events or sessions are available? Use the helper functions.

If you’re loading data for the first time, use laps_async() to fetch all drivers’ data simultaneously:
