Default LF Bearing Failure Today at Hershey

I was autoxing with the Porche club today at Hershey, PA and had a LF bearing fail.
The ring that holds the wheels studs seperated from the hub. I was not fully aware if it until i got home and pulled the wheel, caliper, and caliper bracket. the "ring" spins on the hub, but does not pull off.
The car has 40k miles and front hubs were replaced at 32k, w/OEM hubs.

not uncommon. Upgrade to the HD hubs.
