Does anyone know whar the N and E are for on an F1 car. THE N is on the nose usually just in from of the cockpit the E is on the side. You can see the N it very well on Shumi's on board view.

One stands for neutral, one stands for engine.
The neutral puts the car into neutral, and the engine one turns the engine off

Is there something underneath like a button or are they sensors?
