Well it's a rally car so I'd assume the wheel just broke under the stress of landing a jump.

A forged aluminum wheel would never do that would it? Those must be something else.

Few laps around the Ring with a 500ho turbo EK4 Civic.
Before



After




Copy & paste from:

They are not before and after pics! Thay are pics of the front vs the rear wheels. The fronts got so hot that the offset actually changed on them. Why they got all bent up is because they hit the brake caliper on the inside eventually. Basically the spokes started to straighten out due to heat until they clipped the caliper.

Heat from braking+g forces+weak cast wheels = bent/deformed spokes...
