Default Qatar #96 barrel-rolls in Norwegian Grand Prix!!!

You just gotta see this one!!! I was in Arendal last weekend, and it was a great Class1-race.
From a distance we suddenly saw LOTS of water in the air, and understand that something spectacular had happend to the #96 from Team Spirit of Qatar.
I`ve watched this video over and over, but I can`t understand how this could happend...

First time I see a cat of this size do this... A 360 barrel roll!

More videos from the race & the event:

That is some great footage...best part is the in cockpit shot. Haha looks like as soon as they land the first thing the throttleman does is check for full throttle....

Did they lose their port side engine/drive/steering/prop? Almost looks like it was predicated by some sort of equipment failure.

I`ve just been to the chief mekanic`s FB site and looked at the pictures when the lifted the boat on shore. Can`t see anything that indicate anything like that...
Almost looks like they hit something in/under water, but it`s said that they did`nt do that either...
I`ll ask & get back with info later.
