The fact you said “people above him said the same” is my point. A lie being repeated creates more ignorance.

As to your point of the car swaying, that’s beside the point.
More gaslighting. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Feel free to substitute “red” for “hot” in this discussion. The brakes are red/hot because the car is so heavy in relation to the braking system’s capabilities that the brakes appear to be reaching their thermal capacity. It’s not like every car on the ‘ring has glowing red brakes. It’s notable here; that’s why people are commenting on it.

It would be fair to suggest this M5’s brakes maybe should be larger for this car on this track. Perhaps we’ll see that in a CS if it ever happens.
