When you go forward, the gearbox automatically changes gears when you accelerate or brake.

This option is recommended for gamers who are not interested in an accurate gearbox control.

There is also the clutchlesspaddle-shift gearboxmode.

Realistic fuel consumption- Mandatory option for those who prefer realistic approach.

It changes the fuel consumption and force the player to more economic driving.
