Lambo only operated an F1 team in 91 as the "Modena" team.
At no time was there a "Lamborghini F1" team in name.
As engien supplier they powered
Larrousse in1989,1990,1992,1993.
Lotus in 1990
"Modena" - Lamborghini Formula One in 1991
Ligier in 1991
Minardi (1992)

Teh first car in post #2 is the closest to a full Lambo engnie and chassis

well based on the evidence "Lamborghini powered Formula 1 racecars"

Shame they didn't name the cars with their team/chassis developers.
either the Larrouse or the Ligier was a Lola chassis IIRC.

Don't ahve my reference books here to confirm from the driver numres which each car is. But IIRC Larini was hte Modeno/Lamborghini driver and so I'm sure that's the "real" one. The Lotus is obvious

The thing that strikes about F1 cars of this era, is how exposed the driver's head and shoulders are. Shame that it took Senna's accident to realise the obvious.

IF the tyres were tethered it woudl never have hit him.
I'm an "old school" driver who bleives in beign abel to LOOK AROUND to see if the overtake is on or if benign overtaken how to avodi them.
Current F1 drivers ahve SEVERELY restricted visibility.
If you lok at some of the 80s racing you'll see F1 drivers LOOKING over their shoudlers to judge the gaps.
I put the current spate of wheel knocking and "offs" at corners down to the lack of side and rearward vision.
Don't think the increased height ont he sides has doen anything to "improve" safety.
