OTOH if you fail to slow the car before turning in then you'll get understeer which from experience soon has you heading for the scene of the accident.

Am I correct though that, if it is induced by the driver, then we should be talking of a driver mistake, style or technic rather than oversteering / understeering of the car? I did not notice that this year but I used to note that MS was apparently enjoying "oversteering" his car (sometimes using the kerbs to stop the slide of the back end).

Nope. It's the chasssis' fault, unable to get heat evenly to the tyres.
