As I watch some MPR replay files and incar-views of different players, I notice that the clutch pedal doesn't show at all for some players (while changing gear).

Has this something to do if one is using automatic clutch?

My expirience with mpr was that mpr doesnt have that high of update rate (car movement, gas/clutch press etc). Its simmilar to csgo's tick rate

MPR rate is 3-6 updates per second, depending on the server settings (it's the PPS setting in the server's config, default 4). I can imagine a clutch blip fitting between updates and therefor not showing up in an MPR.

I never expected this to be the answer, thanks

in my opinion seeing clutch pedal bar shown in a mpr or a server is a pretty good indicator that one is not using autoclutch

e: atleast used to be that way as mpr is different from inserver view nowadays, still applies to seeing the clutch in server
