Could have took a drop/whack with no-one realising or someone not owning up to it, even a factory defect. More plausible theory would be it going beyond its service life in aid of not spending more £££ on race wheels.

don't think Griff was on duty due to his shoulder injury, Griff did go on to say even these wheels do have a shelf life.

nah, Griff was sitting at home trying to figure out a new logo for the race team.

Saw the wheel, but did you see that last corner. That's racing folks. I was at work and my colleague had his ipad with F1 on it playing out loud and I was sitting there with the WSB, then the BSB on my iphone with headphones in. They nearly died of shock when I jumped up and started shouting lol

The last interesting thing that happened in F1
