Too quick did he over do it turning in or was it the black car behind pushing him?

I see it as he was pushed (a lot) so what 90- 110 about what you think
Its just the way the car flipped lke that ,, it did not seem to be going that fast until it started to flip

Got to be over the 100 to have kept it spinning like that, do you think he had a sore head after?

That corner is "Schwedenkreuz". The approach is pretty much top speed, then just a stab on the brake and turn-in at well over 100mph into the corner. I'm glad the driver was relatively unscathed. It is not somewhere you want to fall off - many fatal shunts have occurred there even over recent years. Looks like he got a bit sideways and overcorrected before being hit from behind.
