They are not really that bad to stear if you have manual steering. If you have a power steering gear and the pump isn't working, then, yes, any vehicle is hard to turn. with the correct manual gear box, they aren't that bad though. Would be also be easier to steer in the pits and returning to a pit if the motor was at a low idle or not running.
