Xiaomi Auto responded in "Xiaomi Auto Answers to Netizens" stating: "In the video, the Xiaomi YU7 Max conducted 1 warm-up lap + 1 flying lap at the Tianjin V1 racetrack, and after that, parked directly under extreme conditions without a cooling lap. The high temperature caused the organic material of the brake pads to catch fire, but the overall braking system did not experience any brake failure issues; it remained functional and operated normally. Additionally, the test vehicle did not use the 'Energy Recovery Enhancement' feature in the Xiaomi YU7 Max master mode. This feature enhances the energy recovery intensity under track conditions, reducing the load on the mechanical braking system. Even in the event of ABS lock-up, it can still provide a maximum of 0.2G of braking energy recovery, effectively reducing the occurrence of extreme situations where the braking system temperature exceeds 600℃."
