That Fella can drive.
Why would the front tire lock-up if the system was disabled? I doubt if he's doing any hard braking.
This is exactly how my e55 w210 behaves when I'm playing around in the snow.
So what's the verdict?

With the steering angle and weight distribution of the there would be very little weight on the front right tire causing it to easily lock up when taping the brack (look at the video at 9 sec you can see the rear brake lights as he enters the corner). Also sliding in snow is different than drifting.
There are also aftermarket companies that make lockers for these cars. There is NO way the ESP or ASR even when just switched off will allow the car to slide like this. With ESP/ASR disabled the car will drift and slide (two wheels spinning) all day long. The ESP/ASR limits torque.
