    I promised months ago to make a video showing this required technique for F1 bliss. Using this method results in zero clunkiness in the 1st generation F1 transmission.

    Here it is.

    Any range that feels and sounds good that’s under redline

    Exactly what I do with mine: just stab the throttle while pulling the left paddle. You'll get a rev blast that fits the shift, smooths the downshift out.

    My experience is the only way to screw it up is to mis-time the throttle blip. (This tends to happen when I haven't driven the car in a while.)
