What does 1:44 of the video say about the AWD system?

Does all 4 wheels spinning in the air give us any insight?

That given little to no resistance, the RS like most all AWD/4WD cars, will spin all four tires in the air.

Was thinking about this and it tells us only one thing. The FoRS does not have a system like the WRC cars where the handbrake disengages drive to the rear axle.

The rear wheel will spin when airborne if any of the following conditions are met:
1 The car is moving when the wheel goes airborne and the parking brake is not engaged.

Even if FWD the rear wheel will keep spinning due to momentum. In RWD/AWD the wheel will spin if any power is going to the rear axle regardless of differential type.
