From the BEA analysis (P2 PF):
"At 480 feet, the approach had still not been stabilised and the speed remained at 210 kt. The Captain ordered a go-around, which surprised the co-pilot who was focused on the landing."

Surprised!!
Cockpit recorder:

Cap: Surprise, surprise... We are going to perform a Go-around
F/O: A go what ?
Cap: Go-around! Have you ever study that at flight school?
F/O: I am afraid,I missed that classrom.

Anyway, Airbus don't have an automatic flap retraction system in case of overspeed ?
