My experience from working at a car company (although not in the F1 area):
This kind of work is typically outsourced, since it's not a core competency for the company. So the company would be contracting some web development agency which builds a homepage and potentially also hosts it. There are contracts and specifications in place around what needs to get built.
In the web development domain I don't think the outsourcing aspect is a big plus or minus on execution ability. There will be some good and some bad agencies around - and an internal team might not really be doing a better job.
Regarding performance: They mostly wouldn't even recognize. The work is presented with some fast connection and device, so it's not visible. And even if it would be, the people responsible for it (or even the leads of those companies or teams) are not that tech savy and will just accept it as the current state of the art.
There will be far bigger discussions around other things than performance. E.g. which images and fonts are to be used, how trademarks and the brand are represented, etc.
