HICAS is supposed to turn in line with the front wheels at high speeds to help with highway lane changing maneuvers but during those sweepers it seems to switch from the straight position to the turned position with a mind of its own. It kind of feels like the back end is doing a little twitch or kind of a shimmy. Its really hard to describe in detail unless you really feel it. I dont think the HICAS system was meant to be used in racing situations but more of an assist to help such a big car not feel as heavy for street use. In which case it does the job quite well, IMO.
