An F1 Car's Brake Suffering Fiery Slow Motion Death Is Weirdly Mesmerising

This is what happens when the brakes on F1 cars get too hot, as we see Esteban Gutierrez's Haas suffer a dramatic-looking fire after a mechanical problem in Chinese GP second practice

Gutierrez managed just six laps in total during Friday practice, after a gearbox issue in morning and the brake fire in the second session. It may have been a tough day for Haas, but the 2016 season has been going well so far. Nico Rosberg and Lewis Hamilton were quickest in FP1, with Kimi Raikkonen and Sebastian Vettel fastest in FP2.

“Well the race engineer told me to keep heat in the tyres and brakes!”
