Installation

Install via pip

The easiest way to install LiveF1 is through pip. Run the following command in your terminal:

pip install livef1

Optional: Polars backend

To build LiveF1 tables with Polars instead of pandas, install the polars extra and select it with livef1.configure(dataframe_backend="polars") (see DataFrame Backend (pandas or Polars)):

pip install "livef1[polars]"
