I'm pretty sure most F1 drivers left foot brake today since the clutch is behind the steering wheel and is only used to get the car moving. They have to trail brake to be fast. That said, I would be willing to bet they don't left foot brake in a road car. Most are from countries that automatics aren't common. I know even though Schumacher and Jean Alesi have modern Ferrari, they both drive original Fiat 500s that are certainly manual. Completely crazy concept to me to left foot brake a road car. Of course I haven't driven an automatic in years.

True, my point was just to show that you can drive really well and use two feet although it seems a lot of the time a good amount of people don't.
