gearbox as desired. Suspension
damping is optimised to enhance
driving comfort and the CST
system remains set to the previous
level.
SPORT mode is the basic driving
mode for the vehicle and provides
the best compromise between
stability and performance. This
setting ensures stability only in
medium-high grip conditions and
not on low-grip road surfaces (in
this case, it is advisable to return to
Low Grip mode). In this mode, the
vehicle maximum performance can
be experienced on open roads. For
this reason, the suspension
damping level is shifted to a higher
one, so as to enhance performance,
handling and stability at high
speeds. Also the CST system
switches to a different level
(Level 2), offering the driver
greater driving freedom. The F1-
Trac system does not correct
engine torque significantly when in
SPORT mode (for this reason, it
does not ensure stability on low-
grip road surfaces).
RACE mode must be used only on
race tracks. On vehicles equipped
with F1 gearbox, gearshifting is
faster so as to reduce gear change
times as much as possible. The
CST shifts to Level 3 (engine
power reductions are minimal) and
the suspension stiffens further. In
this position, the driver has full
control of the vehicle and the
operation of all engine control
systems is reduced to a minimum.
Stability is not ensured.
The CST is deactivated. Vehicle
stability is no longer controlled,
but is completely in the hands of
the driver. The only aids that are
still active are those that cannot be
deactivated, such as the ABS and
EBD. When the brake pedal is
depressed, the VDC system is
reactivated, while the F1-Trac
system remains deactivated.
Gearshifting speed (on vehicles
with F1 gearbox) and damping
control remain the same as in
RACE mode.
