The CVR may have a terrible metalic ripping sound on it and an oath by one or both pilots.
And maybe some conversation between the pilots about a problem which they may have noted prior to the structural failure. We won't know unless or until that information is made available. One of the first things to be determined is whether a fire caused the failure or whether the wing failure caused the fire. The surfaces where the separation occurred will reveal the answer. Not much has been presented so far to support either theory. But it will.
