    In an interview Kubica said it was even 170 km/h. He was trying to save it with a handbrake, but couldn't.

    As Kubica said brakes were ok for the whole stage and there were no sign they were getting worse, brake pedal was hard until end of stage when brakes suddenly failed. Also keep in mind that he started building his team 4 weeks ago. If sponsors are giving him money for driving and are waiting for a better results then we should also wait. At least he gives some color to rallying and a hot topic

    It's stupid to say it was his fault when on video it clearly shows that brakes didn't worked at all, only handbrake when he was trying to save.

    Kubica said on facebook (video), that there wasn't any problems with the brakes during the stage. Just hot brakes on the stage before.


    Just before the finish line he wanted to break, but the pedal went into the ground and the only thing he could do was to use the hand brake. He says it was a technical failure
    it's all about driving fast

    discussing if his 3rd crash in a single event was due to technical problems or not is retarded... i feel at least 5 IQ units lower in intelligence now that i got involved in this argument... the problem is i have room for that but you guys... you guys i worry about.

    you did with numbers out from your mind= you did nothing.
    you dont know the speed
    you dont know where is exactly the flying
    you dont know how long straight is before the flying
    you dont know when he started to brake
    you dont know what corner is after the car dissapears from video,and with how many km/h can run through
    you dont know if there was any brake failure
    you dont know how is the fade of brakes

    Keeping the pressure on as the arrogant did it... he'll make it.
    The arrogant is prone to mistakes when the menace comes from within the team.
