Back in the days this could also be used for performance reasons, to keep the turbo on, preventing it from needing to kick in again upon re-acceleration out of of the corner (back then turbo lag was huge and the "kick" was hard to control).
This technique was known to be very harsh on the engine but some races pilots would do it anyway.
