As has been said many times before; traction control cannot override the laws of physics. If there are too many lateral g's on the rear, and not enough grip from the tires, there will be oversteer. TC only helps drivers more easily reach the limit, but when pushed over the limit TC cannot prevent oversteer.
Also, they could have been oversteering when the driver removed his foot from the throttle. Ever drive a BMW? Lift-throttle oversteer. TC works by cutting power from the engine. So if there was no throttle input, the TC can do nothing.
If TC could involve the brakes, like in some road cars, then lift-throttle oversteer could be tamed. But of course this is not allowed.
