F1 outlawed automated shifting, not ATs

It was still a manual transmission with a clutch but the automatic shifting was controlled by electronics and hydraulics. No torque converter as in a conventional automatic transmission.

F1 outlawed the automated shifting and required driver input.

Check out this article in Car and Driver about the 2015 370Z Nismo seven speed automatic transmission.
