How would You like to change gears by handbrake?
Come on. There were two sticks in two litre cars. One for handbrake and one for emergency manual gear-shifting.

Duval losing gearchanges at the steeringwheel, and so converting handbrake into gearstick

Here you see when Markko has lost the paddle shift and has to switch it to his handbrake.

Thanks guys, it looks like the emergency gear stick was introduced only after these issues. Somehow I forgot.
PS I can not see the video of Duval as it is available only for signed youtube users. I have no idea why.Stupid is as stupid does. Forrest Gump

The Subaru never had that since the early Impreza days when they where testing it for the 97 WRC i think. The Impreza gearbox never really broke either though Originally Posted by Mirek

I think it was only Ford that had this. In this report of Rally Deutschland, I saw the Xsara en the Fabia have 2 sticks (handbrake and gearleaver) Originally Posted by Mirek
