From the video it really looks like brake failure and an attempt to save it by handbrake. It wouldn't be the first crash of such kind.
For example this was a confirmed case of sudden loss of brake pressure: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FR4uEZA8M-k
My mind is relatively precise, I trust itQuote:

Kubica wasn't alone in having brake problems on the stage:
Jari-Matti Latvala appeared stressed as he steered his Volkswagen Polo R into the finish (of SS14). “The brakes are horrible. I had no bite on them and it was very, very scary to drive. We only have one stage left, so I hope it will be OK,” said the Finn.
Why are Breen & Hirschi with VW in "event highlight day3" on wrc+. Is it because they finished?:D:D:D

No chance you can make that corner going flat anyway since it's a 1 or 2 right. The front left is locked up from the cars already so obviously the brakes are working. Watching Tanak who is the only inboard before Robert he is braking 100m before the finish and just hitting 180kph.
No, 'cause riding VWs.
Another view of Robert's off

he crashed 3 times in 4 days not once...Quote:

he had a lot of practise to elarn them last year... seems he enjoys finding his limits too much... rallying is not for him. It is getting dangerous.Quote:
