I felt and to some extent still do feel your pain. Lucky to have a community willing to share and help. I found controller setting that got me around Imola and now Watkins Glen. Of course the final exam will be Nurburgring.
But what helped equally as much was using the suspension settings to tame the car and smooth the driving dynamics. Also I always use hard racing tires. That keeps me driving on the edge and teaches me more control.
My only driving aid is ABS.
I am by no means a expert driver. But I am able to make it around and improve. I have to say that the only way to play PCars and GT for that matter is with a wheel. Because even after all the adjustment mad for the controller, there is still the issue of losing the car due to over correction. In the end there is still a twitchy nature to the DS4 control.
I plan on having a wheel by Christmas. But until then I'll work with the DS4. I will not race with others until I know I can control the cars I choose to drive. And who knows, maybe SMS will revise the sensitivity of the PS4 controller.
I do know that this is a very good game. And I really like the setup options and adjustments. What is special about this game is those adjustments work and can be felt.
I would like to map gas and brake to the triggers on the controller. But no matter how hard I try, my fingers wont use those keys in the correct manner. Too many years playing GT with a controller. I mapped the controller to mimic GT.
Gas is X and brake is O. L1 down shift, R1 upshift. Left stick is steering. Right stick is PCars default.
