Senna's burns blamed on wiring

MINOR burns suffered by Brazilian Bruno Senna at last weekend's Singapore Grand Prix were caused by loose wiring and not his car's KERS kinetic energy recovery system, his Williams Formula One team said yesterday.

Williams reported after the race that Senna, who retired on the final lap after his car lost power, had some burn marks on his back.

A Williams spokeswoman said the team had found the scorch marks were caused by a wiring loom seal coming loose in the seat, which then allowed heat from the back of the car to escape.
