I agree to some extent. I find the Touring classics near undrivable now, but these to me feel more like racing cars
rather as they were not feeling connected to the road. The first sequence was difficult to do flat in the Merc
I got a setup and a feel for it most of the time in practice, but the Lil Beemer was less risky
 I couldn't hold the Opel through there, and the Mustang was also tough. I got somewhat sideways a few times
in the Merc and the Beemer, and mostly held it, so I don't think it's skill so much as setup.
I can stick my easy listening setups on the page in case anyone finds them useful

I found the Merc default setup undriveable. Like "can't drive a lap of Silverstone Intl' without spinning" undriveable. Try increasing engine braking reduction (less spinning when braking), reducing power diff (less power oversteer), increasing coast diff and/or preload (less oversteer on corner entry). I had to go to pretty extreme values to keep it from spinning both on corner entry and corner exit. I think they forgot to update some of the defaults after the December update.

Nice to know its not just me!

In the end the corner entry wasnt too bad, just understeer, but it was corner exit i was struggling a bit, initially it wasnt that bad, but as the tyres wore, or heated up  they were sliding too much. I tried reducing the power diff but found it was even more lively. Just need time to relearn it all again.
