pretty sure that they've stated it will have full steering wheel support.
with that, i'm sure they would support the full input range allowed by the sticks,
just because if you design the control scheme for full analog range for steering wheel,
why go to the trouble of designing it for a lesser d-pad only scheme?
especially when somebody with a wheel playing against somebody with only a controller should be pretty common.
i would just chalk it up to the person playing the game for the preview video just isn't that good a player,
or is just happy enough to get by with jerky controls... 
EDIT: Oh yeah... I think it's still worthwhile to say... WOW! about this game again, both on an improvement basis and just as it currently looks period.
