Re: Ouch....
That's my least favorite corner of the entire N'Ring. I find it to be very tricky and to be always on the verge of slipping if I take it slightly too fast or not in the perfect line . I loose quite a bit of time on that one, but have saved my car until now 
Sad for the car and the guy. He did not drive like a maniac

True, Gnil - but in this case I'd say "unforced error". I agree with you that the guy was not driving like a maniac (read: not too fast), but if you look closely you can observe that the right rear tire goes onto the green a little bit (see dust at 40/41 sec) - that was it 
@Bjoern: depends on the fineprint - indeed a lot of german insurance companies provide full coverage also for Touristenfahrten and Trackdays 
If that wouldn't be the case I'd get a Cup-Porsche to play with rather than a streetlegal GT3

I didn't see it the first time. You are right . And a wheel on the grass with that angle / speed is one mistake too much
