Example Calls
Show me where on track I'm fastest and slowest
analyze(analyzers='track_heatmap', event='01H8SP4HK4', lap_selection='best', value_column='speed')
Creates speed heatmap of best lap with color from slow (blue/purple) to fast (yellow/red)
Visualize my throttle application on the track
analyze(analyzers='track_heatmap', event='01H8SP4HK4', value_column='throttle', colormap='viridis')
Shows throttle position (0-100%) overlaid on track layout
