Question 1

What is the difference between Ferrari's F1 gearbox and the dual-clutch?

Accepted Answer

The F1 is a manual gearbox with a single clutch, shifted by hydraulics, slower and jerkier at low speed. The dual-clutch, from the California and 458 on, preselects the next gear and shifts without a break in drive.

Question 2

What should I check on a used Ferrari with the F1 gearbox?

Accepted Answer

The clutch wear, which a Ferrari specialist can read with a diagnostic tool, and the condition of the hydraulic pump and actuator. Town driving and manoeuvring wear the single clutch fastest.

Question 3

Which Ferraris have the eight-speed dual-clutch gearbox?

Accepted Answer

The SF90 Stradale introduced it in 2019, followed by the Roma, the 296, the Purosangue and the 12Cilindri. Earlier dual-clutch Ferraris, from the California to the F8 and 812 Superfast, have seven speeds.

Question 4

Are manual Ferraris rarer than automatics?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Ferrari's last manuals were offered on the F430 and 599, and few buyers chose them. Those cars now trade as collectors' items, so nearly every used Ferrari is an F1 or dual-clutch car.
