I reckon he'd have got away with that if he hadn't clipped what looks like the end of the armco barrier down section... glad no one looks like they were hurt..Jim

what a clown, clearly driving way too fast, took the exit from God knows what lane,...
love the way they feel the need to tell us how much the motor was worth, they should have have said 7 weeks of the wages.

Driving way too fast and with no ability! The journos always try to sensationalise as he lost a tyre (not a wheel) but still expensive... a careless driving charge ?
Seemed to on his phone very quickly after as well
Glad he didn't hit anyone else but it's not like he'll be worried about the cost of his next insurance quote I want to see the sweets before I get into your windowless van... I'm not stupid!

When cornering hard, don't brake mid corner. Simple really.Visiting from rrsport.co.uk

Looked a bit like he was braking with the throttle on. Brake lights came on but didn’t really do much.

Must be fake given link is to Daily Mail, this forum doesn’t ‘do’ the ‘Mail, jeez, you all even deny looking at it

yup ... exactly what caused the loss of control. if he'd planted the accelerator instead of touching the brake, it would have been fine.
however, the way he appears to cut-up the car that incidentally filmed it shows he's a knob of a driver.

ish .... the I-Pace automatically reduces the level of regenerative braking when turning into a tight corner .... which, although for the reason of avoiding incident such as this, can be a little disconcerting the first time it happens An ex-Disco3 / FFRR owner ......
