Exactly what I thought.

Like, he makes absolutely no effort to turn. In fact, he even straightens it out to better hit the rocks head-on.

It looked to me like he did at first, but the rise/speed prevented effective action from the tires. They simply cannot bend physics. When he saw that leaving the road was inevitable, he then tried to pick what he thought was the best path (who knows, he may have missed something we didn't see that would have done far more damage?).

Either way, looked like inappropriate corner entry + speed + ignorance of the "track". He looked like he was at near 100% of his ability on an unfamiliar piece of road. Always a disaster.
