DiRT Rally steers on comma and period rather than the arrow keys, puts the gears on S and X and hands the whole Page Up / Del / End / Page Down block to looking around the cockpit. Codemasters' manual prints the keyboard and the pad side by side; its key caps are drawn glyphs, so the rows below were read from a 200 dpi render.
