I don't think the overall temperatures are high enough to induce pad fade but it is a theory I will investigate.

One thing that doesn't add up with that theory is that the brakes fully return after the car slows down to a slow speed the ABS computer apparently "exits" its ice-mode. There is also no pull or anything else that would indicate more braking for on one side or the other.

There is however a large temperature differential front to rear, so it is possible that the ratio of front braking force vs rear braking force exceeds the ABS computer parameters causing the event.
