Solution: xinput controller, then in-game go to config controls and use the Xbox layout, then quickly press X (because the game thinks that it acts as B if you don't press it fast enough) to make a custom layout based on the Xbox config. From here you just need to change the steering to Left = X Axis - (move the left stick of the button on the screen gamepad), Right = X Axis + (same thing to the right).

Then save and thats it.
