Method for supporting a driver of a motor vehicle during a skid and motor vehicle

The method involves detecting a skidding condition of a motor vehicle (1) by a chassis control system e.g. electronic stability program system. A driving direction (19) stabilizing the vehicle is determined by a parameter e.g. slip angle, using a control device, where the parameter is determined by the chassis control system and describes vehicle dynamics. The detected driving direction is displayed on a head-up-display. An indication directing the view of a driver towards the stabilized driving direction is generated by a vehicle system e.g. headlamp system or head-up display.
