V1 in smaller aircraft

Hi, non aviator so please bear with me.
As I understand it V1 is called when there is insufficient runway to stop the aircraft so it is committed to flight.
When a smaller aircraft is operating from a long runway, so there is still room to stop from Vr, is V1 still called?
Just curious, thank you.
