An R package to access Formula 1 Data from the Ergast API and the official F1 data stream via the FastF1 Python library.
Install the stable version from CRAN:
install.packages("f1dataR")
or install the development version from GitHub:
if (!require("remotes")) install.packages("remotes")
::install_github("SCasanova/f1dataR")
remoteslibrary(f1dataR)
Data is pulled from:
Note the Ergast Motor Racing Database API will be shutting down at the end of 2024. When a new data source is identified the package will be migrated to that source.
load_laps(season = "current", race = "last")
This function loads lap-by-lap time data for all drivers in a given season and round. Round refers to race number. The defaults are current season and last race. Lap data is limited to 1996-present.

load_driver_telemetry(season = "current", race = "last", session = "R", driver, laps = "all")
When the parameters for season (four digit year), round (number or GP name), session (FP1. FP2, FP3, Q, S, SS, or R), and driver code (three letter code) are entered, the function will load all data for a session and the pull the info for the selected driver. The first time a session is called, loading times will be relatively long but in subsequent calls this will improve to only a couple of seconds

load_session_laps(season = "current", race = "last", session = "R", add_weather = FALSE)

load_circuit_details(2023, 4)
This function loads circuit details for a specific race session. Note that different track layouts are used at some circuits depending on the year of the race. Useful for visualizing or annotating data. Contains information on corners, marshal_lights and marshal_sectors.
plot_fastest(season = "current", round = "last", session = "R", driver, color = "gear")
A built in plotting function that plots the circuit and a driver’s
fastest laps’ speed
or gear
exists.
plot_fastest(season = 2023, round = 1, session = "R", driver = "VER", color = "gear")
Two helper functions exist as well. The first,
theme_dark_f1()
assists with colour schemes similar to that
used in other F1 graphics. The second,
correct_track_ratio()
is a function that fixes track ratio
issues that appear when you create images similar to that above from
plot_fastest()
. Please refer to their documentation for
usage.
The package echos the metadata information look-up from the FastF1 package. this is a convenient way to programmatically look up drivers, teams, driver-team relationships, team colors, driver colors, tire types & colors and more. See the following functions for this look-up:
get_driver_abbreviation()
get_driver_color()
get_driver_color_map()
get_driver_colour()
get_driver_colour_map()
get_driver_name()
get_driver_style()
get_driver_telemetry()
get_drivers_by_team()
get_session_drivers_and_teams()
get_team_by_driver()
get_team_color()
get_team_colour()
get_team_name()
get_tire_compounds()
Note that (in support of plotting functions) driver colors and marker
type / line style can be retrieved from get_driver_style()
.
The function get_driver_color()
will return the same color
value for both drivers in a team.
The cache directory for sessions can be set manually with the options function
options(f1dataR.cache = "path/to/directory")
Many other functions exist, and are flexible enough to call the
current season
with the string "current"
or
use the year as a numeric value. Similarly, round
can be
"last"
or a round number (from 1 to the total number of
races in a season).
load_constructors()

load_circuits(season = "current")
load_pitstops(season = "current", round = "last")

load_schedule(season =
2024)
load_sprint(season = "current", round = "last")
load_standings(season = "current", round = "last", type = c("driver", "constructor"))
clear_f1_cache()
Clears the cache for all functions in the package.
