I assume it is because: (1) the paddles would always be in the same place (2) it's what people are used to on other cars (3) it wouldn't involve 'searching' for the paddles if one is in mid-turn but where one's hands are no longer in the '10 to 2' position.


All true. Smiley
You could also have added   "....... but you shouldn't be changing gears in mid-turn anyway". Smiley

I can't resist replying...

(start rant)

If you lose track of the position of your steering wheel, you shouldn't be driving a car like this.

Not changing gears in mid-turn? You've got to be kidding, right? Try going around parabolica in Monza without shifting gears mid-turn... Most long "unwinding" corners should be taken while upshifting mid-corner.

I suppose people saying you shouldn't change gears mid-corner are the same people who are saying you should always brake in a straight line.

(rant over)
