Vehicle Dynamics Control (VDC) stability and traction control system can apply brake pressure to the inside front wheel
You have better chance avoiding scrubbing of your speed during turning with nannies on.
Most owner have never pulled more than 3G lateral acceleration. You simply cannot do it without computer aids. Formula One cars are brake by wire for a reason.
If I was wrong you wouldn't just respond with smiles.

I think he can. I however cannot. I doubt the active torque vectoring is as you say. I don't recall that this car ever had it at least they don't call it that. Torque vectoring is more for understeer in 4wd cars which our car is not. It's rwd and understeer can be neutralized by other means. And he is very hard on his brakes and needs to control his brake temps, and this torque vectoring you speak of would foul that up.
F1 cars are not brake by wire for the sake of this torque vectoring. There is much more to it than just that. Brake bias, boost, changing conditions, tires, etc, etc... us mere mortals probably couldn't grasp it.
I doubt any non-100% race car can hit 3g's without F1 type downforce and full race slicks.
What you smokin?
