In the practice within the first five minutes, both Gasly and Hamilton went off because their brakes locked up without any reason. Especially Hamilton was clear to see as he was on a straight. Both McLarens have random snaps as confirmed by the radio messages. Colapento also went straight because the car decided this was the best option. It seems like there are too many controls in the car that make it almost impossible to predict what will happen. As a driver, I would be more cautious because it feels like the car is controlling you instead of the driver controlling the car. Bizar stuff.


Its not without reason. Its the interaction between the KERS and the SM and heavy braking that transfers all the load to the rear and spins the car.
The McLaren issue is unrelated, and is good old crosswinds.
