My friend,
as soon as you can shift directly to neutral from an high gear, it is not a sequential.
Ferrari is H pattern based, Lambo and Audi as well. They are all using Graziano transmissions, or paddle or H manual.
Only the SMART is a real sequential.
The sequential shifting is mechanic and it would need only one actuator for up and down. The robotised you are mentioning are using at least 2 actuators. One for front rear and another for left right.
Or like in the BMW one valve for each gear.
Regards
Wanni
