Are formula 1 cars the same in team set up?
no... set by driver preferences. usual differences will be front/rear wing set up which controls aerodynamic downforce at front/back of car respectively (ie how hard the air pushes the car down, but also increases resistance reducing top speed/acceleration).
Main difference I can think of is on some tracks Jenson Button (McLaren) is using Brembo brakes, while Lewis Hamilton (McLaren) is using Carbon Industries brakes. Other differences in set up will include:
> Brake balance - how much stopping power the brake pedal will apply to front/rear wheels - can cause oversteer/understeer in corners depending on drivers personal preference
> suspension set up (eg ride height, how firm the suspension is), can be configured to induce oversteer/understeer again depending on drivers style.
> fuel - one driver might carry a lighter fuel load which means they cannot run at 100% power for the whole race (or they will run out of fuel) but because they are lighter they can go faster and will have less tire wear - the driver might be gambling on a safety car allowing them to complete part of the race at lower power, or a poor qualifying (eg Webber in Shanghai, Rosberg in Suzuka 2011) starting at the back of the grid where traffic will limit capacity to run at full power
> tire strategy - drivers qualifying outside of the top 10 (or not setting a time in final qualifying) may chose different starting tire (option vs prime) and may also chose different strategies throughout the race.
Is it possible for a human to outrun a Formula 1 car from a complete stop?
From a complete standstill, a person can outrun a Formula 1 car for about 30 metres.
A "bang bang" or anti-lag system is a way to reduce the lag in a turbocharged car by introducing fuel into the engine during idle time, but only igniting it when the engine exhaust valves are open. See the related link for some more details and a discussion of its legality in the UK.

Has Lamborghini ever raced in formula 1?
No, Lamborghini has never raced in Formula 1. Lamborghini was founded in 1963 by Ferruccio Lamborghini, who was a successful tractor manufacturer. He had no racing experience, so the company's focus was on luxury cars and sports cars, not racing. Lamborghini's flagship model, the Miura, was introduced in 1966 and was well-received by the public. However, Lamborghini never ventured into the world of Formula 1 racing.
In the late 1960s and early 1970s, Lamborghini did enter a few races in the World Sportscar Championship, but they never raced in Formula 1. In the 1980s, Lamborghini was owned by the Chrysler Corporation, and they considered entering Formula 1, but those plans were scrapped.
In the 1990s and 2000s, Lamborghini was owned by Audi, and they had considered getting involved in Formula 1. In fact, Audi had established a Formula 1 team called Audi Sport, but Lamborghini never made a move to enter the sport.
In recent years, Lamborghini has become more involved in motorsport, with their own one-make series called Lamborghini Super Trofeo. They also provide engines for a variety of racing teams in the World Endurance Championship, and they have been involved in other forms of motorsport such as rallying and the GT World Challenge. However, they have yet to make an entry into the world of Formula 1 racing.

What does it mean to say a 200 lap race is official after 100 laps?
In most cases it is known before the race that if for some reason the race would not be able to continue, the leader at the half way point or any point after up to the final lap (the official end of the race), could be considered the winner and the race is concluded.
For example, the thousands of spectators, and competitors have accommodation's for the day or days of the race as the schedule states. In the event of rain or some other un-fore scene event stoppage many of those people would have to leave and return home. They would be unable to be present for the conclusion. Though it may be disappointing to all to have a shortened event, that's the way it is. It doesn't happen often.
