It just loosened in the bar (it was a very solid hit!) enough that it could flap around, and then quickly came out. I deliberately fix them in very tight, but not rock-solid-never-gonna-move-in-an-impact fixed in position, as I'd rather it loosened in an impact than rip off a bodypart!
It worked perfectly - stopped the brake lever being either applied or ripped off (either of which would've potentially been disastrous), but still gave way-ish in the impact. Wetty's leg probably wouldn't agree with me though..... it was quite bruised and sore, I gather.
I popped a new one on before the next race
