Rears locking on final change down

I am just back from a fantastic road trip holiday through the alps and Italy.
The car is a 997.2 c2s Cab. I noticed when driving some of the more extreme passes e.g. Stelvio, going downhill, I would get the rear wheels momentarily locking going into the hairpin, just when the Car went 2nd to 1st. Is this normal and OK?

Are you rev matching? Toe and healing?
 
No, just I'm just doing the breaking and leaving the downshifting to the PDK!

Sorry thought you had a proper car, can't help with an auto :grin:
 
Sport or sport plus ? I find the changes are more aggressive up and down, more so in sport plus. Also the rear will be unweighted downhill under heavy breaking.
Just a thought, not an expert. :dont know:
