You do not punch it when turning, nor braking

I think he slammed it and then just let go of everything back went over... if he slammed the brakes even after he lost control and when counter steering wouldnt have had helped anymore, i am sure he would have stopped before those cars... it seems like he screamed like a boy and let go of everything :P

I wonder if the driver of that Lambo wasn't the owner of the car. See crap like that happen all the time when a teenager takes it out or if a service person takes it for a quick joy ride.

it is easy mistake to make though with such cars, but I am sure Labo has ESP? So he entered some kind of cool sport mode to be cool? Thats funny :-).

Looks like power oversteer to me - maybe followed by trailing throttle oversteer and then ...
My guess:
He hammers the throttle too soon coming out of the corner while the car is still trying to turn and all that horsepower trying to accelerate the car takes all the turning grip away from the rear tires and the car starts to skid around (power oversteer.)
He than says oops and snaps the power off too fast. So engine braking kicks in only on the rear tires taking away turning grip from the rear tires (because the tire traction is now being used for braking) plus the weight is now off the rear so the rear tires still have no grip for catching the turn. No braking on the front tires and weight is now up front so front tires dig in with lots of turning grip while the back tires are engine braking and with less weight on them and no turning grip so the back comes around even more (trailing throttle oversteer). At this point he's over the yellow line and pretty much screwed.
In summary, too heavy-handed on the throttle changes - especially with all that horsepower.
Just my guess.
Or as Mr. spwolf says: I think the term the cops would use is: "reckless driving."
