it's also a good idea to double declutch when downshifting. With the gear selector in neutral on the way for example from 4th to 3rd, while passing neutral lift up on the clutch and then immediately declutch and complete the shift.
Two things happen - you slow down the spinning components of the clutch and u give yourself an extra moments to sense the gear selector is in the right plane.
On older crash box style transmissions you'd have to do the double declutch.
Since it's done under braking your minimizing a time loss when going for a quick lap for example.
