Occurs when the wheels are turned, and the car does not turn at the same rate. Causes the front of the car to take a wider apex than the driver's steering lock requires. Also called push, or tight in the US. Can be corrected by adding more front downforce, sofening springs and rollbar, or reducing front tyre pressure. Extreme conditions cause a car to go straight on instead of turning for a corner...

When the front tires lose traction before the rear tires, a car is understeering. Instinctively, a driver will compensate for understeer simply by turning the steering wheel further. This makes understeer safer than oversteer for the average driver, so automobile manufacturers design this characteristic into their cars.

Occurs when the front wheels have lost adhesion or the driver is turning the steering wheel too sharply for the vehicle's speed. In understeer, the front wheels do not follow the steering wheel angle, and the car refuses to turn and pushes ahead. In motor sports, this is called push. The driver can regain traction by reducing speed. Also may be cal...

While entering a turn/corner, the momentum leading the car forward must be met by grip from the front tires, and later propelled around the turn while accelerating. If the speed and momentum in which a turn is entered, exceeds the grip of the tires, this will lead to understeer. This means the car will “push” itself away from the apex of the tu...
