It's deception.
Classic visual/technical manipulation, not an honest image.
If that car slowed down that fast his ahole would be around his neck. The frame rate of the recording is being undercranked. Normal recording rates are 24-29.97 frames per second which portrays live action in the most accurate and synchronised rendition to the human eye.
That recording appears to be recorded/photographed, or re-recorded, at 16 to 18 fps.
The faster the frame rate the slower the action, the slower the frame rate the faster (and more radical) the action. The slower fps (frames per second) enhance the look of the straight away and the radical braking going into the corner.
That type of visual manipulation has been utilized since the fortys, its just a little more sophisticated now.
Take a look at a Tarzan movie where he swims really fast and (obviously) unnaturally, same principal with modern day enhancements.
