Modern sports cars now almost always travel coupled with very fast and super precise automatic gearboxes, capable of switching from one gear to another in the blink of an eye so as not to lose even for a second the thrust of the engines they have to manage. However, we know well how the charm of a manual gearbox is unparalleled, especially when coupled with cars that make driving pleasure their reason for being. Once upon a time, the most powerful cars seen in the world had manual transmissions. The Formula 1 Ferraris boasted – like trophies – a lever with the speeds indicated on a grid to facilitate the drivers' maneuvers. That aesthetic was inherited from its six-speed road vehicles. Ferrari's manual gear lever made room for one of the most important aesthetic details ever seen in a car. This is a distinctive element typical of Ferraris with manual transmission, although it has also been adopted by some Lamborghinis or the Audi R8. At first glance we can say that we are faced with a normal gearbox, but the fact that the guide is visible is truly special. This scheme derives from classic Formula 1 cars with manual transmission, where the selector acted as a guide for the driver to help him position the gear correctly. A very important function, since one mistake was enough and the race was over.
