You see that breaking earlier for corners will most likely cost you the race when it's a close battle. It's even why some players won't make use of it.
The time it happened to one of my Samsung phone, I didn't try drying it myself but took it to an IT shop and they had it fixed. I never wanted to try all those DIY tricks.
Seriously, their battle was so thrilling and brutal to say the least. I have forgotten the one that have one injury mark on his chest if I remembered correctly.
