If PDI were so inclined to work the Ferrari FF into a game (whether it be GT5 or GT6), would they really be able to properly recreate the car's drive system?

For those unaware, the car uses a now-conventional 7-speed "dsg" at the rear with a simple 2-speed auto attached to the front of the engine. The front 'box uses initial clutch slip to limit power to just 20% and then uses controlled clutch slip to employ one gear for the rear's 1st and 2nd and another gear for the rear's 3rd and 4th, transferring 100% of power to the rear for 5th through 7th.
 
They will probably try to make it as close as possible to the real thing, but not to the point where it gets too complicated for players.
 
I would hope that it could never get too complicated, as it's designed to be entirely uncomplicated in the actual car. It's really a fascinating system and I would love to see it properly implemented in the game, whether it be 5 or 6.
 
Given that Nissan's ATTESA system, which while still complicated isn't as much so as the FF's AWD system, has never been accurately modeled in the game, I think this may be asking too much.
