The STIG should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
BMW's Transmission

Okay, observation from someone who doesn't watch WTCC often [no Eurosport]. Why is it, that with the exception of Zanardi the BMWs have a 5 speed H pattern gearbox, when everyone else has a 6 speed sequential.

In fact, why do they have a 5 speed box at all - all the BMW 3 series I can find on the BMW website have 6 speed boxes

Could this be a factor to their poor performance vs Seat in Curbita?
