At 21:10 in part 2 watch what happens. Maybe a little oil or something. Rubber from the line when wet. I don't know. I didn't mash it at all.
The car in it's stock form has a natural understeer tendency. When you find the limit of traction in a neutral throttle corner like that one you will tend to understeer. In the wet, understeer can result in wheel skip like that. The best thing you is straighten the wheel out a bit and breath off the gas a little (but not a full lift) until the skipping stops. In the wet you learn that traction is different at different parts of the track depending on surface conditions, camber, etc and is sometimes dynamic (raining harder, easing off). Driving at the limit in the rain is an act of exploration
