A few factors here... Cadwell + Rain + Race Speed + crap Windscreen = the Video above lol.
Kudos for saying you screwed it right up - personally, I think you just got caught out and the moment of getting away from the following pack got to you.
From a fellow amateur racing driver from Brazil: we know accidents on a track are not a matter of "if" but rather of "when"... you curse a little, then take the car to the shop, fix it and get ready for the next race... sharing an accident like this takes some balls bacause you know that "experts" are going to say the funniest things. [] Cheers.
Well, us Brit's can actually drive pretty well in the wet (it rains quite a lot here), I rallied for two years before I went on to Tarmac, so this was a pretty silly mistake for me to make.... I can however see (judging by your display of computer game driving skills), your ability surpasses mine by a mile, I should have turned the 'anti skid' option on in the race menu before pressing the start button, because as you know, you cant steer once those wheels lock.....
@Eksterminator Come on then...jump out of your parents basement, get a job, save some money, buy a rae car, bring it to britain and show us how it's done! No? Didn't think so. Keyboard Conan!
From few weeks I'm also Fiesta owner and I know that this car is real easy to drive - it breakes amazing rapidly because it's a very light car ! When my drive wheels start slide I'm trying to recover control by kick breaking/accelerating. I know that breaking on rain is much more difficult, but here was a lot of free space off road well driver mistake/s was relative big (probably to high speed, and/or "push and hold" breaking).
Stupid mistakes hapen sometimes, can't we laugh from this ?!
unlucky mte i always go to cadwell some 1 died there the other day it was raining and a car span and a car just chopped it clean and half i was there it was not nice
Oh well, never mind, as the video says, it happens. Admirable that you managed to keep it down one "Oh shit", I would probably have used much more of my vast french vocab!

Funny - English and can't drive when is rainy...
He was driving to fast. In this case he shouldn't trying to stay in curve, but just turn the wheel a bit and let car turn slightly off road...
