If the wing breaks mid corner in a high speed section the results could be spectacular as it would result in a sudden, unexpected and uneven (front/back) loss of grip.
If a front wing comes off it can wedge under the car lifting the front wheels off the ground removing most of the braking effect. Near the end of the straight this could mean 200mph towards the scenary.
Generally there are limits imposed so the cornering speeds don't get too high.
