He turned way too late. Probably forgot where he was on the course in relation to the next turn. Now he is trying to play it off as something else.

Also did anybody else noticed that the it was clear than totally clouded then clear again in that video.

If the car lost grip and understeered into the bank, it would appear like he forgot to turn. Unless you saw the interior shot, you can't make that judgement, Mr. Monday Morning Quarterback.

As for the weather change, I'd be willing to bet the took footage from multiple runs and spliced them together. If you're working with only one camera and want to show multiple angles, that's what you gotta do.
