Would you say rollover is realistic in this game?

Initiating a rollover in the game is extremely and unrealistically hard even with racing soft tires and a tall car with a high ride height. It's clear that modifications to the physics engine have been performed in order to make it much harder than depicted in that famous demo where the Fiat 500 was featured.
Also, since in order to make a car roll over without hitting any obstacle or barrier it's usually necessary to crank up to the max negative wheel camber, it's clear that tire physics modeling is flawed too. In real life a neutral or even positive camber is what increases the car tendency to roll over over the loaded tire. Hitting sideways a curb, sand trap or even grass in some cases should cause rollovers too.
Suddenly pulling the handbrake at high speed is a good recipe for rolling over too in real life, something that never happens in GT5.
