According to one of the commenters who claimed to see it happen, it was in turn 7, a 90 degree left-hander. It wasn't entry speed--it was too much throttle on exit. Power on oversteer, IOW.

Thanks... For reference, my question on "southernmost turn" from Google Maps was for Turn 5. Turn 7 was going to be my second guess.
The witness comment at Jalopnik said two things -- that he kept on the power and never turned the wheels. Hard to figure out why he didn't let off or attempt to turn. I still remember my dad going through driving scenarios on how to handle a skid when I was 15 -- and "steer into the skid" was burned into my brain...
