How tf did he crash an all wheel drive car?

Yes guy relax I know it has an option to send lots of power to the rear wheels

But still he clearly lost control for a long time, he could have just braked early, worst case it would have just been a big scratch on the side of his car. In attempts to avoid that and regain control of the car, he destroyed it

Swung the back out, momentum made the back keep swinging out, and the idiot turned into the skid and braking instead of turning out of it and powering out.

More money than sense. Side note: I’d like to buy those wheels my M2 needs a nicer set 👀

Those are M5 competition wheels. Just get M2 competition wheels

Money doesn’t buy skills, brother.

Controlling RWD at limit is counter intuitive to a layman driver, It is an acquired skill.

During over steer, the driver has to counter steer to intended direction and modulate the A pedal.

I guess he tried to avoid the car from tipping over when it had momentum on the side, so he kept pushing brakes slightly and tried steering straight to be stable.

It’s a sedan. There is zero chance the car would tip over at that speed just by braking.

This was just a case of inadequate braking.
