F55/F56 Gear Shift in Sport Mode vs. Sport Mode

Gear Shift in Sport Mode vs. Sport Mode
Hi,
I know there are two sport modes with the automatic transmission.
I know #1 affects just the gears, while #2 affects the gears, steering, and suspension.
My question: Is there any difference when selecting both #1 and #2 together? Or is it basically the same as selecting just #2?
TIA
I know there are two sport modes with the automatic transmission.
- Activated by pushing the gear selector to the left out of Drive.
- Activated by pushing the Driving Modes Switch to the left.
I know #1 affects just the gears, while #2 affects the gears, steering, and suspension.
My question: Is there any difference when selecting both #1 and #2 together? Or is it basically the same as selecting just #2?
TIA

2. Select "Sport" from Driving Modes.
3. Run the twisties and floor through the straight.
Engage Sport driving mode and move shift lever to left and repeat. Tell us what your butt dyno says.
I believe engaging sport mode only doesn't affect shift points, only steering and suspension.

I actually find moving the shifter to M/S does more to the car's responsiveness than putting the car into "sport" mode alone.
That's just my take, your results may vary.
