If you want to use that PS3 gamepad without assists you should remap the throttle and brake to R2 and L2 oh and use analog stick for steering.

ls left - steer left
ls right - steer right
R2 - Throttle
L2 - Brakes
square - gear up
X - gear down
triangle - DRS
circle - car status
L1 - kers
R1 - camera change
D Pad - Quick menu

Can you drive with gamepad without traction?For me is impossible.
I always driving with full traction because without that,I could not turn.
My lap time is 1.5 - 2 second slower than the wheel drivers .

I can't cause I use wheel but if you check on YouTube there's a guy KPTK or something and he drives with Xbox game pad. He's one of the fastest guys in Forza and F1 2012 and he even plays iRacing with the pad.

I custom set up my gamepad for pc to something very different, but I guess I'm used to it and find it the easiest set-up to play with as my own preference. It works well as I hold the gamepad with both hands, of course. You can certainly try this out as an alternate gamepad set-up if the default doesn't work well for you.

Here is my set-up configuration:

Left Analogue stick left = steer left
Left Analogue stick right = steer right
Left Analogue stick up: up a gear
Left Analogue stick down: down a gear
Right Analogue stick left: quick menu left
Right Analogue stick right: quick menu right
Right Analogue stick up: quick menu up
Right Analogue stick down: quick menu down
D-Pad left: look left
D-Pad right: look right
D-Pad up: look foward
D-Pad down: look backward
Start button: push to talk
Select button: change camera
X: car status
triangle: rear view
Square: instant replay
Circle: Pause
R1: Throttle
L1: Brake/Reverse
R2: KERS
L2: DRS

Try my setup if you're not comfortable with your current one or the default one. It took a lot of time testing out which set-up worked best for me.

You believe that he drives with pad?I saw on videos the smoothness of movements on the steering wheel.
How does he do this?
