Wow !! Simply superb job. Will argue the point of “greatest” F1 car though…. The Jim Clark Lotus 25 has my vote.

It's unbelievable! How is that possible?

Amazing work!!!

A few days ago I was wondering if it was possible to use SketchUp + Substance Painter.

What format do you export in SketchUp to open in Substance? obj?
When opening in Substance, is the mapping automatically recognized without problems?

Sorry for responding so late, but I was on vacation for a couple of days..
Yes, I used a similar tecnique.
The main difference is that I use the obj exporter from Quadface Tools which preserves quads (you can see the quads in the Substance wireframe).
And yes, if you have good UV's Substance will respect them.
You also have an option for auto-unwrap in Substance, but obviously if you are able to unwrap manually you have a lot more optimization in terms of texel density/wasted space.
Here's a tutorial I put togheter a year ago.
It's a bit outdated because now I use another faster trick to straigtehen flat strips of polygons when needed. But the basic workflow is there.
For this model I used pretty much the same technique, the only difference is that the Ferrari has a lot more elements, texture sets and details.

Well, I'm italian so.. you know.. Ferrari is religion, and the f2004 is the holy grail for us..
But that classic Lotus was a beast of a car indeed.
In my opinion, both of them are waaaaaaay better than theese bad looking, bad sounding, soul-less cars that we have nowadays.
