    It looks like the move e5 (letting white to get another passed pawn on d5) is the final mistake. I wonder if black don’t play e5 white wins that easily?

    Good question. Actually the answer is yes, white wins easily. Black has to many weak pawns. For example if R1c6 (instead of e5) then white can play Ra7+ followed by Rf7 and then black is forced to play e5 anyway.
