The Life F190, also known as Life L190, is a car designed by Richard Divila and Gianni Marelli for the Life team, which participated 14 Grands Prix during the 1990 season before withdrawing after the 1990 Spanish Grand Prix.
Within the Formula One community, the Life L190 is often regarded as the worst F1 car ever designed, having failed to pre-qualify in all the race weekends it entered. Following a drivebelt failure on the first lap of pre-qualifying in San Marino, Bruno Giacomelli set the slowest recorded lap in the sport's history, at 7:16:212, excluding lap times at the Nürburgring during the Nordschleife era.
