Got it. So far, I'm finding that, on the street at least, the lightness of the wheel in comfort makes it more difficult to be smooth in hard cornerning, as the wheel wants to turn too easily and I'm constantly making small corrections. In his review, Clarkson alluded to the new M5 having some weird steering traits due to BMW trying to remove understeer from the car. I do agree that driving in Sport is a bit more tiring, even on the road.
