Aston Martin Vulcan
So, I saw the Vulcan in action on The Grand Tour and couldn't help but wonder why a 2 million dollar vehicles brakes squeal so much. Can anyone shed light on this? Why was it so damn squeaky?!?!

Race pads can be/are noisy...you take the noise to get the better performance, simple as that.

What about all the other hypercars and supercars... why weren't they noticeable?

Because all the other super/hypercars are still meant to be driveable on a normal basis. You could theoretically buy a Bugatti Chiron and daily drive it, it's engineered to do so.

Yep, not street legal so it doesn't have to worry about "street" brakes. Lol
