Why is there no Lamborghini in F1?
2 Answers
F1 has no Lamborghini because Lamborghini lacks sufficient funds. Here are specific details about Lamborghini: 1. Exterior: Besides the distinctive rear windshield and super stylish side profile, the most notable features are the unique central chrome strip running from the front to the engine hood, the golden bull emblem, and the beautiful signature of Mr. Lamborghini. 2. Interior: Equipped with 24-inch carbon black twin-spoke wheels and Aventador's carbon ceramic brake system. The interior of the Urus continues Lamborghini's family traits, with the entire dashboard featuring a skeletal carbon fiber structure made from ForgedComposite.
I think Lamborghini's absence from F1 has historical reasons. They tried developing F1 engines for teams in the early 1990s, but the budget was too high—they spent a fortune with poor results. Eventually, the company gave up because Lamborghini is better at making luxury sports cars, like the big bull that's a street superstar. F1 requires continuous massive investment and team collaboration, with current teams spending hundreds of millions annually, and they figured it was better to focus on the supercar market. Moreover, within the Volkswagen Group, Audi is entering F1, so Lamborghini stepped aside to avoid resource overlap. Overall, after picking the wrong timing, they never tried again—other series like GT3 suit them better.
