[iaustin7]

Wow! Cool!!!!!!!!

[hhy910118]

holy shit ! nice sound !!

[comali2212]

It's a semi automatic transmission, the acceleration is controlled by the driver while the downshifting is controlled by the transmission and the down speeding of the car.

Amazing technology!

[2quick49]

No they used to do that i think earlier like in the early 2000's, but 2007 they were full manual

[GTAstuntz]

They are still using semi automatics now...

[devio123]

so fucking cool

[first100]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW

[MrRedbullvettel]

clutch my arse the clutch is used in the pits and at the start thats it

[kdiopgh]

don't gotta try to know what'll happen my friend

[ryanwo567]

its all done by one finger

[VolcanicICEman]

two fingers actually one for clutch and one for down shift

[aydeeT]

eh not really, it handles the clutch itself

[VolcanicICEman]

um actually yeah! they have 4 paddles behind the wheel to bottom paddles are clutch and both top are up down

[aydeeT]

those clutch paddles are only for start and for the occasions where you spin the car and not stop the engine,

no human cud change gears in 5 miliseconds with using the clutch.

[devio123]

@VolcanicICEman it just paddle shifting

[Sanctuaryz]

beautiful!!

[kdiopgh]

if i drove one of these i would crash and die

[americanblues05]

[Blisworthboi]

[evofreak1304]

that's fast :D

[fireboy1785]

pass the tissue!

[Honda9893r]

yep and it sounds like its running with no tc

[Billopoulos]

It was actually running with Traction Control, you can hear it especially on the first right corner... On the exit of the second one, it seems he is more gentle with the accelarator...

[MaranelloVortex]

this is 07, they had no tc in 07, btw you can hear it wheelspin meaning no tc.

[Billopoulos]

I still think I could hear some TC working there... Maybe some tests or something?

In test sessions they could always use whatever they wanted, that's my thought! :)

[shotcalla2]

yea they can adjust how much tc they want

[pimpy200]

ai!

sorry, i'm not familiar with all the teams

[antonioVillasboas]

yes ha ha ha

[lombricus]
