Drifting in GTA 5 is all about control and timing. First, you gotta be speeding, then hit the handbrake (R1/RB) while turning the car. Just as you start sliding, release the handbrake and control the drift with the gas and steering. Keep practicing in an open area to get the hang of it. Sometimes, tuning your car for better handling can make it easier to drift too!

Just tap the handbrake and swing that steering wheel! Drifting in GTA 5 is more about feeling the car than anything technical. Find a car that feels right to you, and go wild.

Honestly, it's easier to drift in the rain or on sandy surfaces in GTA 5. The reduced traction makes your car slide much more naturally. So, wait for some in-game bad weather, then start practicing your drifts.
