Watching this sport a long time and I've seen calipers lock up. Pads disintegrate and other things to cause the rear rotor to glow and from time to time spark, even seen rotors explode.
But every race I've seen Macri in this year that rear brake is sparking, glowing. looks like somethings off center.
Anyone know? Just carbon fiber disintegration? IDK.

I thought it was a James Bond distraction technique
I have noticed it also, what used to be "that guys brakes are about fried" now goes on lap after lap.
My friend says it's the pads everyone is using? I have no idea. I know one rear brake unit did catch fire while I was watching the Larry Rice Classic a few weeks ago. Forget the driver but he pulled off and went back to his pit.
