chassis/engine mount

The chassis of a modern formula 1 car is constructed mainly of CRP with a Aluminium honeycomb sandwich layer. The engine chassis mounting interface is highly critical for the longitutinal torsional stiffness. Therefore how is the engine mounted to the chassis? Surely it is not just a simple matter of threaded fasterners through drilled holes!
