I thought he was the owner and car tester of JUN?

First, the engine blew, then one of the tires blew making it lose control.

Not so sure about that part, as the last thing you would do on a blown engine is start downshifting it. Japanese anyone?

It looks a Japanese documentary video clip to challenge this race.
I heard "at 334Km/h@7300rpm on a straight, The left rear tire burst."
Dai(driver) tried to reduce speed by downshifting with counter steer but he rolled over at 240km/h."
I think no engine trouble at all.
It looks quite fortunate he survived without major injuries.
