Shit that got away from him quickly! I'd say something on the left rear let go. Can anyone translate the radio dialogue after the crash, i'd be interested to understand what he's saying.

What I heard about this crash is that there was a problem with one of the bearings of the rear wheels.

I think it was a wheel bearing collapsed or a tire blew out...a translation would be nice though

Wow, that was scary. I definately agree that something had to have gone out on the rear end - otherwise thats the craziest case of snap oversteer I've ever seen.

Glad he sounded like he was alright.
