I'm not an expert this, but if he's using the clutch, he can control engagement and partial slip. Whereas the other guys are in one gear or in another gear with no in between.

I was watching his footwork. I didn't think the Nextgen cars used the clutch to shift.

They don’t have to and most drivers don’t, but I think he’s so accustomed to using the clutch, that he does it anyways and it obviously is helping increase his speed on the road courses. The previous gen 6 cars didn’t need the clutch either, only to start and stop.

I was thinking something like that.
