Why is it the drivers just keep their foot mashed on the brake pedal

I don't understand this video. All was going ok?! It also doesn't look like he locked up the wheels as they're still turning just before he hits the kerb.

Does that model have ABS?

Yes and I'd think that there is a good chance it will be a write off

Looks like he planted it a little to hard while his wheels weren't quite straight.

Not uncommon.  

But unforgivable to end up like that in ideal conditions and in such a modern car.

Best course of action if you feel it go (in such a relatively minor way) is just ease off the power . . . you won't look as cool as you would drifting back straight but you won't F*ck your car up, either.

Muppet.
