OK captain obviouses

I know you can shift with an e-shift, but the last time I checked you can't reverse or neutral in e-shift.

Anyway you look at it, it has to be a unique system.

I believe those three buttons on the aluminum plate near the center console might have something to do with it. I am assuming this is very similar to a Ferrari F1 transmission?

That's what I thought. One for forward, one for neutral, and one for reverse. but I'm a complete noob with Lambo's so don't ask me.

for ferraris, pressing both paddles at the same time puts the car in neutral, you have to do it when you stop or it will overheat the tranny.
