It actually isn't. According to Ferrari's official numbers, every variation of the F1 (360, Enzo, CS, Challenge) shifts at the same 150ms. Which is almost exactly 2x longer than it takes the SMG II in S6 mode (80ms). The SMG III in the new M5/6 shifts at 65ms.

Hi Greg, thanks for the info... I'm not sure why it just "felt" quicker but then again the Stradale seems to be all about "feel" etc... It just seems more raw, connected and responsive than the non-CS.
