Am I missing something, didn't the aircraft have full left rudder when the autopilot disconnects?
When the A/P disconnected the rudder deflected 2 degrees left. The aircraft started to roll 6 degrees/second the left, until the FO finally noticed the bank angle 9 seconds later. (At which point the aircraft already rolled 6 * 9 = 54 degrees left).
