It's illegal, that's for sure . 'Anti-stall' is still a launch control aid IMO, but at least they have to manually operate the electrohydraulic clutch to start (makes the race more interesting). And F1 regulations only require physical clutch actuation from a standing start. Look at the hands of drivers from the on-board rear cameras while racing and most just tap the paddle with ONE index finger (depending if up or downshifting). My curiosity is how the paddles are operated for the starts. Have a good one.
