6:36 did you hit a slippery spot or were the tires starting to get greasy?

It looks like the back end got loose under braking coming into the corner and unsettled the car.

Just a split second too much trail braking...that was the difference. This circuit is so long and grueling, coupled with the hot weather made it hard to keep my concentration 100%. It was pretty miserable out there.

Rear engined cars aren't exactly the easiest to trail brake on either.
