Semi auto gearbox clutch thingy
Semi auto gearbox clutch thingy what`s that all about then,Checa and Loris were quickest at the start of the test season on the"old" gearbox,now they`re mid pack

Should they had waited `till this new system was perfected,or is the best way to perfect it?Is the Desmo to thirsty on the fuel to finish the race now they`ve knocked two litres off?Is that why they`re using it?Will it reduce the Gyro-effect to help cornering?

Hmmm interesting...............................

I think they are commited to advanced technology, but this seems to over run their desire to win races. To us it seems logical to go with the normal gearbox and go for the outright win. If the rders are not comfortable with the new system then go back to what they know.
