Other cars made the corner ok and with 4wd I thought it wouldn't be an issue for the 996 turbo? Is it because 4wd cars inherently under steer or something?

But how come he went so far wide - do you think he just chose that line or was it understeer?

More understeer, but also 4WD = increased traction but not necessarily increased grip??

Looks as simple as he hit the dirt and over-corrected?

Looks pretty clear to me. Missed all the previous apexes so was wide on each exit, distracted by yellow car, wheel in dirt. End of. Nothing to do with car or drive system.

Looking like he mis-judged the line, got on the grass ....game over.

Trying to avoid yellow car, went wide, grass on one tyre tarmac on the other = crash.
