Seamless for R27 too!

All that has to do with the power train, gearbox, clutch, fuels and lubricants, etc. Generally the mechanical side of Formula One.

Ferrari's is carbon fibre, as well as McLaren's, but that's not seamless.
Anybody know why?

The team to beat is Renault, no doubt about it...
A titanium gearbox? Damn, they've got some talented (and very patient) machinists.

hate to tell you this allan but sebbe clearly wrote that renault are the ones using titatium, and Ferrari and mclaren are using carbonfibre, read correctly next time

and the team to beat definately is not renault, more like Ferrari or mclaren, but no clear front runner for the time being, we must wait at least until OZ to get a clearer picture, and seeing how out of the front runners only Ferrari has two experienced and mature drivers they have a definate advantage from that point (among many other ones,including overall reliability)
and yes, fisico is a P*ssy
