It's a controversial issue, with some arguing it's part of the competitive nature of the sport, while others insist it undermines fairness. With advancements in technology, detecting these "doping" practices has become a significant challenge in the racing world.

As a car enthusiast, I've often wondered why BMW and Audi haven't joined Mercedes in Formula 1 racing. After some research, I discovered that both companies have their reasons.

Audi, on the other hand, has never been in F1, as they prioritize endurance racing like Le Mans and Formula E. It seems both companies have different priorities and goals in the motorsport world.
