Exactly.

Well in this case you should check your car/tires, something is definitely wrong, probably the alignment and/or tyre pressure, or maybe the tires were simply overheated.
The amount of grip on the new one and the increased chassis rigidity compared to the F22 are immense, it's impossible not to notice. The old one was quite poor in corners with its tiny wheels.
I still think he was referring to the M2 and not the F22, or perhaps not a stock F22. Or - more likely - he was simply driving a lot faster in the new one without realizing it, the G42 disguises speed very well (maybe too much), but if an F22 tries to keep up with a G42, after two corners and two braking sections it will end up against the wall.
