Probably the fear of losing traction accelerating through it in a lower gear!

Listen, i never said he did it for a certain reason, only a guess seeing how out of the turns in the lower gear he was almost losing it. I myself accelerate and modulate through turns as well, who knows why he did what he did or what was going through his mind, never said i AGREED!

I think you were right about why, makes sense to me.

It is Manuma's father who owns the FXX. I'm not sure who is driving in this vid. I do know that Manuma had set the fastest FXX laptime at one of the events, FYI.
