Yeah, but the little car looks like its got snow chains or snow tyres. Watch how it breaks the ice and kicks it up

And probably not picking the right TC mode

Poor driver, a steady throttle may haved got the traction control to kick in. On and off throttle wont work.
Some people dont read the handbook ar do driver training....

haha it's fun to see from the outside, but when you are in such a situation it is very sad, and the panda is very agile, well, in general, it is light, so this is understandable

If you have ever seen a RRS try to start on sand with ESC activated you will know what is happening.

But DSC should not be on.

But DSC should not be on.
Agreed but I bet it was.
I remember many years ago an RRS was having great difficulty starting on sand at a Range Rover Club training day at Stockton.
The driver was very experienced and had even been a driver in the A ustralian safari.
I leaned through the window and said did you disable DSC?
What's DSC?
You cannot assume that a driver will know what DSC does.
