i think he was drifting to help turn the car more into the turn because he kept cutting the apex too early. i think if he wanted to deliberately drift he would have more oversteer coming out of the turn. he probably needed more track time to be familiar with the track and the proper race line.

i just think he sucked and was getting on the gas too early. but i agree that he was apexing too early.
