Frankly, drive more careful - pretend as if you were driving on ice. Brake more smoothly, try to turn in a little less rigourously and apply the gas in smaller doses.

Hard braking, abruptly applying the throttle and scrubbing while cornering hurt your tires.

Don't punch the throttle.

it wont get you the fastest laps you can acheive, but this method is nice if you want to have a more relaxed race. set asm to 2 and tcs to 5.

He's right you know...

The best way I thought to learn this was when exiting out of a corner, just pogressively put in more gas and when your fully turned and your wheels are straight FLOOR IT MAN!

Yeah you'll learn that after driving the more powerful cars like the 787B, if you don't want to carefully control the throttle you can always just shift up one gear higher, it's slower but it won't make you spin out.
