It is crap design by Caterham.
The article summary is that the bearing is designed to be maintained under a load of 80-120N and when kept within these operational parameters will work indefinitiely.
If it goes outside of these loadings then the bearing can distort the bearing housing. Once that happens, badness ensues.
I have a date with a bearing next week, So I'll see what it looks like. I'm expecting to see housing distortion....
