Driver Laptimes Scatterplot
==============================

Plot a driver's lap times in a race, with color coding for the compounds.

.. GENERATED FROM PYTHON SOURCE LINES 6-20

.. code-block:: Python


    import seaborn as sns
    from matplotlib import pyplot as plt

    import fastf1
    import fastf1.plotting


    # Enable Matplotlib patches for plotting timedelta values and load
    # FastF1's dark color scheme

                              color_scheme='fastf1')

Load the race session.

    race = fastf1.get_session(2023, "Azerbaijan", 'R')
    race.load()








.. GENERATED FROM PYTHON SOURCE LINES 27-29

Get all the laps for a single driver.
Filter out slow laps as they distort the graph axis.

.. GENERATED FROM PYTHON SOURCE LINES 29-32

.. code-block:: Python


    driver_laps = race.laps.pick_driver("ALO").pick_quicklaps().reset_index()

    /home/runner/work/Fast-F1/Fast-F1/fastf1/core.py:3022: FutureWarning:

    pick_driver is deprecated and will be removed in a future release. Use pick_drivers instead.





.. GENERATED FROM PYTHON SOURCE LINES 33-37

Make the scattterplot using lap number as x-axis and lap time as y-axis.
Marker colors correspond to the compounds used.
Note: as LapTime is represented by timedelta, calling setup_mpl earlier
is required.

Make the plot more aesthetic.

    # The y-axis increases from bottom to top by default
    # Since we are plotting time, it makes sense to invert the axis
