fastf1.plotting.override_team_constants(identifier, session, *, short_name=None, official_color=None, fastf1_color=None)

• short_name (Optional[str]) – New value for the short name of the team

• official_color (Optional[str]) – New value for the team color in the “official” color map; must be a hexadecimal RGB color code
