Minardi ran 2-3 whole season with pretty much the same car. Only a few changes here and there to keep it within the FIA rulebook.
I'm not quite sure how much of that is true, but I wouldnt be surprised if there was an element of that in their. STR only got the new car a few weeks before the start of the season, so they only had a few days testing with it. They were never going to challenge with so little testing under their belts.

Also, theres no pretence that STR is anything other than a junior team, so the main development would always be on the RBR's.
