The secondary controls are entirely optional. Here you can adjust in-game sensitivity and steering dead zone.

There are also adjustments for the pedals, but I don’t see a casual gamer ever needing these. Adjusting the dead zone here would mean less play in the center of the wheel, but also more difficulty in driving straight.
