Simple answer, it's a lot easier to cut carbon sheet to play around with different layouts than it is to mould a tub for each idea they come up with. Layout not right, just cut another chassis.


When it comes to production if you can afford the investment it works out a lot cheaper to mould tubs than have every chassis cut from carbon, especially as a moulded tub can be stiffer and stronger than carbon sheet with the right material.
