Looks as if the yellow one had a hint of oversteer. Why?

It's Priory.

I had to cut it down, I've got the full clip if anyone wants on messenger.

He had overtaken the yellow one a lap earlier.

The one thing about the Radical is that it's handling and braking offers alternative lines that many other cars don't have. He tried for the early apex and either DID clip the kerb or overdid it and had it step out under braking. Without an external view of him it's not possible to see. BUT, if youlook the in-car drive clearly looks to his left before the incident adn I think the yellod Radical is doing the dive to the indised THEN. So I suspect over-braking and it stepped the rear out and away

Oh yeah, you're right it IS Priory. It looks slightly different to when the British Grand Prix is on- the straight where Bridge is seemingly longer by a significant amount
