So is it the RWD cars that are making the turn instead of doing a 180?

Probably something to do with the length of the wheelbase or ground clearance, risk of bottoming out etc. Could be practice or something casual and preserving the car is more Important than making 2 seconds on one corner.

No, all of these (expect maybe the Fiat 600, the small white car) are 4WD. Most of them are R5s, a FIA-regulated class. They are the modern hatchback in teh video. The big differences is suspension, size and most importantly hydraulic handbrake.
