Default Skill or luck?
It also is a reminder that we don't know what is around the corner ...

I don´t know, but that really doesn´t look like 150 mph (that´s what 250 km/h) ?
I use the Autobahn almost daily and that just doesn´t look like 250 km/h.

if it was 150mph he would have been through the barriers before he'd even contemplated taking corrective actions

So would I.
He reacted quickly, but the second countersteer was too strong... he almost lost it there. But then again, these manoevers aren't exactly the easiest to pull at 150kph so kudos to him no matter what.

I'd say 50/50 too, he did react to the first one a tad too late and then countered way too much, still, he got it right without hitting anything

he survived it because Unlike most "drivers" he didn't hit the brakes....

I bet he never cheated and used the walls in Gran Tourismo to get round corners, that's why he had the skills.

If you'll notice how many times and how decisive he turned the wheel, in such a short period of time, with such precision... That was no luck, that was definitely skill. Not many people on the road could have saved it like that.

Skill definitely!!

You can tell by the first turn of the wheel. He turns very hard then realizes he needs to turn more so he does.

Very skillful!

no doubt more skills then the average driver but hes no pro. his initial reaction was a little slow and then he over corrected several times. could of done much worse though [thumbup]

He did exactly what you're supposed to do (at least as best as the situation allowed him). Kudos. I probably would have done the same. I've been in similar situations but with ice.

Spoken like a true Pro. You should be an F1 driver.
