Sounds like a new record
Many experienced drivers prefer to drive without traction control or other systems. Especially if the systems are from a few generations back, it’s better not to interfere with them on the track. However, sometimes it is wise to leave the systems on. Certainly the very latest systems, they can be a real addition. Or if you are driving on a track new to you for the first time, or if you are driving under new conditions, such as a wet track.
What the exact reasoning of this Mercedes driver was to switch everything off, we unfortunately do not know. In any case, at the very beginning of his lap on the Nürburgring, he is surprised by a breaking rear end and dives into the guardrail. His lap (which ended up not being a lap) lasted at least two seconds. In any case, the driver breaks the older record of a BMW driver who put his E30 in the crash barrier after just seven seconds.
