Narrative:

We were departing for a ferry flight on [this cl-350] that just came out of maintenance. All indications were normal. We were given a takeoff clearance. We commenced our takeoff roll with a right approximate 10 kts crosswind; full aileron deflection into the wind; all indications normal. At approximately V1 it felt like the left wing dropped and aircraft yawed to the right then to the left as first officer was making corrections. It was a substantial controllability change that occurred in a brief moment. First officer indicated verbally and through his actions he was concerned. I immediately retarded the throttles; and aborted the takeoff; and exited the runway. Upon shut down and subsequent post flight; the left gear assembly was excessively hot; had a strong burning smell; and the #2 tire was deflated and unattached from the bead. It would appear although unknown that we had a brake or wheel/tire malfunction. We attempted to troubleshoot the unfamiliar condition; declined to depart; and returned to the ramp which other than shutting down on the taxiway and inspecting seems like was our only option.

Narrative: We were departing for a ferry flight on [this CL-350] that just came out of maintenance. All indications were normal. We were given a takeoff clearance. We commenced our takeoff roll with a right approximate 10 kts crosswind; full aileron deflection into the wind; all indications normal. At approximately V1 it felt like the left wing dropped and aircraft yawed to the right then to the left as FO was making corrections. It was a substantial controllability change that occurred in a brief moment. FO indicated verbally and through his actions he was concerned. I immediately retarded the throttles; and aborted the takeoff; and exited the runway. Upon shut down and subsequent post flight; the left gear assembly was excessively hot; had a strong burning smell; and the #2 tire was deflated and unattached from the bead.
