Can't figure out why he crashed! Looks like a classic case of target fixation!

Well, he was doing a fair clip ... but he had more room than his previous passes. I think he was set on going up the inside and then decided there wasn't enough room and wanted to come back to the middle of the road and then decided he couldn't make that so just tried to stop.

If you look closely at the footage he definitely gets into a rolling stoppie right at the end but then there is a definite impact while the camera is pointing at the ground indicating that he never fully flipped it then hit the ground - thus the impact was against the car.

If he'd just let go of the brake the steering might have started working again.
