Hell get rid of the gear box altogether and make them pick one gear for the entire race.

Get rid of drivers too while we are at it and switch to electric engines too Hey it's what F1 is all about right? The best tech in the world?

So if Shifting doesn't matter, then why are CVTs banned?

Last weekend at donnington they had all the cars in the museum out on track and there was a bigger crowd there than at the F1. What would go a long way towards fixing F1 is if there was a F1 classics series on before the main race. Make it 20 laps, stock ford V8s and use all those lovely old cars teams have sat in storage for no particular reason because they never see the light of day.

(I'm sure there's a better actual reason). I think I've posted about this before but apparently Patrick Head's dream was to have a GPS/Active Suspension/CVT equipped wonder-car that could optimise itself based on its location on track and a bunch of telemetry inputs.

CVT would've killed any roadcar relevance. The cars would've had more in common with a generator at that point.

Huh, our previous car had CVT and while it was a bit weird initially, I actually got to really like it. It certainly beats any regular automatics and is way more fuel efficient too.

That's because a road car's CVT is based around fuel economy and keeping it as low an RPM as possible while retaining some driveability. Any racing car CVT would have the car at the redline for the entire lap.

I haven't used a hydraulic pedal set. So it might still be possible. Still feels really nice. But diffrent. I actually found it easier to shift in my buddies veloster turbo than I do with some cars in the rig. So who knows knows?

Not unless it's force feedback (I've never seen a force feedback set of pedals and I'm phone posting so I can't check if they exist) and even then I doubt it. Disclosure: I have a fanatec porsche wheel and clubsport pedals. Edit: also no h pattern shifter feels like one in a real road car or even a race car (formula Ford shifter is way different from a sim shifter) Carth Dookie fucked around with this message at 05:01 on Jul 6, 2016 |

Still. If you think adding a stick shift to the cockpit of a Modern F1 car is going to some how make these drivers "real men" or some poo poo. You're loving mental. They would adapt like they do to any other car change and it would be a pointless waste of time. Norns fucked around with this message at 05:06 on Jul 6, 2016 |

It's not really about being "real men", I just think that they are cool, and managing your gearbox is an art. I also think ABS and TC should not be banned so it's probably best not to listen to me.

There was something of an art to driving those things and every driver had a different style, I think you'd just get electronics compensating if you brought them back though. It wouldn't be like the 80s where people would downshift past the redline or grenade the engine by putting it into first instead of third.

IIRC I read somewhere that Katayama in his first season threw away two points scoring finishes by missing shifts. Now that's pretty embarrassing.
