@Fumanstu will attest to this, I think.
I had a load of issues with the pc version after the last patch. The wheel rotation angle was greyed out and therefore stuck at 900 degrees. Which is undriveable imo at least at race pace. So I went back to PS4, and lo and behold I can drive again!
The simulation is actually significantly improved again. I’m noticing a much more challenging grip level (I’m tempted to invoke RBR here as a decent comparison, genuinely), and tyre wear is much more severe. Weight transfer feels really spot on now, as does the way cars handle jumps and crashes, which have been a sticking point imo, in both WRC and DR games.
My only real gripe (wheel rotation aside) is the meteorologist. I get that they get it wrong, but my last season was so wrong, that i spent literally 90% of it on the wrong tyres.
C.f. below, with my first stage win at Great Orme with fecking dry tyres on that had gone through a wet stage just before this. Bear in mind I was reasonably rapid in WRC 8 so to feel like a noob again here is quite the surprise, and testament to handling changes, which feel great btw.
