In sport mode, you can configure the steering to be comfort.
I know, but active dtc automatically put car back in comfort. Sport+ can't have light steering. Dsc off force u heavy steering

I've also done similar tests with all the M's in Homestead at the NASCAR race track and the new 5 felt similar to the m5 in handling.
Was this the dealer launch event or open to public?
