On Jun 13th 2016 Germany's BFU reported in their monthly bulletin that according to Quick Access Recorders the speed was still about 60 knots when the crew attempted to steer the aircraft left onto turn off P16 before steering the aircraft right back onto the center line. The aircraft subsequently vacated the runway at taxiway P20.
The occurrence aircraft departed Frankfurt for the return flight about 90 minutes after landing.
The Aviation Herald had learned of the event on Apr 29th 2016 when a flight crew reported they had observed skidmarks near taxiways P16 and P20 on runway 25R. Subsequent research had been able to narrow the occurrence down to an Air Astana Aircraft, however, was unable to positively identify the date (and thus aircraft) of the occurrence. A subsequent inquiry with Germany's BFU on May 3rd 2016 remained without reply.
