  1. 1:41 It appears that when the booster tries to re-light the inner ring engines, one of the outer ring engines starts to glow (about 14 clock direction in the video). I would guess that was the initial cause for the booster failure.

  3. 2:05 I interpret the graphics for the booster that rapid disassembly was triggered when 8/13 engines had failed to re-light. I don't know what went wrong but obviously re-lighting the booster engines had success rate well below 50%. Considering that all the remaining engines were on one side of the booster, it probably couldn't have landed even if it hadn't exploded this soon.
