While this may be quite easy for most of the cars, especially the ones with traditional handbrakes than the electronic ones. However, the case is not so simple to leave a Ferrari 812 GTS in neutral without an emergency brake.
For Ferrari 812 GTS, the driver needs to pull both the paddle shifters to engage neutral but after letting off the brake, the car automatically engages the Park Lock in an attempt to prevent moving. If someone wants to leave the car in neutral without engaging the handbrake, they need to activate Carwash mode, which engages neutral, switches off the vehicle, and turns on accessory mode within three seconds.
