I think part of it comes from the way the car has been setup, having spent some time deliberating trying to get it go sideways - and hold it so (not on public roads I may add), it never feels natural. The car has distinct suspension transistion phases which encourage a wider analogue approach to accelerative forces. Its my view The spring rates don't encourage trail braking but instead a tidy braking section, followed by an aggressive turn in phase before a progressive throttle phase.

Saying all that I have spent a number of days alongside a WTCC driver honing my skills to be far more in tune with what the car is actually doing and to drive with it rather than force it to something it will never do well. Even prior to that I had a Caterham instructor quiz me on the balance I was getting out of an old BMW - cornering far quicker than he had expected.
