Jet rolled 36 degrees left as it rotated. This is not the final report but has a lot of info.

Wow. Had not know of this incident. Will try and keep up for the final report.
“It was taking a lot of left rudder…to keep it centreline.”
With a 38.5m wingspan on a 61m wide runway, I would have to say centerline was not maintained at all if the 5000’ remaining marker was hit.

It's monitored to be in a specific range. I don't recall the range (f I ever knew) but 8* seems like a lot. It's normally set to zero.
