''Wired'', Alexander George, October 13, 2014.〕 In 2000, in association with Team Minardi, on the Minardi M02 the company introduced the first F1 gearbox manufactured by titanium rapid casting,〔("Energica Ego review" ). ''The Telegraph'', Roland Brown, 26 Oct 2014〕 a solution later also adopted by other teams. By 2002 Roberto Cevolini & C. had grown to employ more than 50 people and a new in-house technology department was created: CRP Technology.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Last Striking Innovations )〕 This company division was led by Roberto's son Franco Cevolini, a materials engineering specialist who branched out into the research and development of rapid prototyping materials and technologies, creating the Windform 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=CRP launches Windform GT )〕 family of materials. In 2003 CRP Technology was incorporated as a company, also including Roberto Cevolini & C. within its organisation. Its core business continued to be high precision machining, additive manufacturing and the worldwide distribution of the Windform materials. In 2006 the company initiated CRP Racing, which raced its 125 motorbikes in the Honda Trophy 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=CRP Racing wants results in the next Honda Trophy )〕 and the Italian Motorcycle Road Racing Championship (Campionato Italiano Velocità),〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=CRP Racing e Stirpe alla terza tappa del CIV )〕 with young riders recruited by the technical staff who took also part in MotoGP.
