Only reason I can think of.
I was following someone else in, same speed, same line round the corner...

but not all cars are equal
thats like saying 'I followed a lotus round a corner doing 80, he made it but for some reason my nissan micra span'

I guess.
But that's why I blame my tyres. At that speed, I imagine not much else has an impact.

3 points on your license for a balding tyre you know
4 bald tyres = 12 points = ban. You'll have to give your Micra to someone else.
