Here is some Yoke time.
I question the hands-gripping position
and the index-finger or "nub" turn looks pretty risky at the hairpin

I enjoy the yoke (not the buttons) in my Plaid so I converted my new MYP over to a yoke for consistency! Review can be found here.

Installation and review of the Aroham Yoke for my 2021 MY Performance (9/7/21 build)
Aroham sells many yoke styles, shapes and finishes, so choices are many. I chose this more rounded yoke, as compared to the Telsa OEM yoke in my MS Plaid. My Aroham Yoke I ordered the one with the same vegan leather as the Plaid, and also the heated option, as my MYP has a heated wheel from...

Yep I think this is a good example of what it will be like when the wheel is turning back and forth. With the round steering wheel, it is always in the same place. With the yoke it's like a rectangle with different places at different times. So I don't see how you can keep your hands in one steady position to take control. And don't get me wrong. I am a yoke enthusiast. I absolutely love it. I do feel though with FSD beta, it's going to be trickier than manual driving. Especially with some of the erratic movements the wheel makes when FSD is engaged. We shall see soon enough.....
Got my first safety score yesterday and here are some observations.
The algorithm is heavily tuned for highway driving. Normal city driving may ding you.
Someone cutting in front of you will result in “unsafe following distance” and probably “hard breaking”
Full regen (no traditional braking) at speeds above 50mph will result in “hard breaking”
Traffic lights at throughways will likely result in “hard breaking” when change
Full 90’ turn may result in “aggressive turning”
Quick turn to avoid an obstacle will result in “aggressive turning”
Bushes on the side of the road may cause “forward collision warning”
Running stop signs or red lights to avoid hard breaking will not result in penalty
Gently rear ending someone to avoid “hard breaking” will not result in penalty (“unsafe following distance” kicks in above 50mph)
Using autopilot may be a “get out of jail” card for hard breaking but not for turning
Overall, it is a good beta and they could use more sensors/logic to improve it. Would love to see exact time when the “infraction” occurred, potentially with video. It would have much better effect on behavior - now, it is somewhat difficult to find exactly what caused the ding.

I like the yoke too. The buttons are sloppy. The high beam button i used for the first time lastnight and it was pretty hit or miss.I enjoy the yoke (not the buttons) in my Plaid so I converted my new MYP over to a yoke for consistency! Review can be found here.

No one with a yoke car has reported getting the beta FSD; here or anywhere as far I am aware.

Considering auto-park cannot (is not? Will not?) work on the refresh Model S, I am not so certain I want it barreling down the street driving itself.
I also do not have a car. So there is that.

Nice! Do we know if this is a one off case, like a member of the original beta test team? Anyone here get the update? What firmware version number is this?

Note his version: 2021.32.26
This is likely an Early Access version
Public beta version is 2021.32.25
