Does EVERYONE in PR drive an auto?

Downshifting is when you drop down a gear for whatever reason, the most productive of which is entering a turn... you want to be in the gear that is going to put you at the optimal point in your powerband for when you're exiting the turn. If you enter a turn at 45 MPH but take the turn at 25 MPH and you're still in fourth gear, you're going to crawl off of the apex and come out of the turn slow. If you drop down to second gear before entering the turn, though, not only will you not have to brake as hard going into the turn, but you'll be in a good gear for when you're coming out. You'll exit the turn as fast as you could have.

Maybe someone with some track experience can refine this a bit.
