We were briefed that Rudder limiter fault was reoccurring. Capt jumped out of seat to pull breakers. Aircraft started to slowly roll unnoticed by FO until over 40 degrees due to rudder. This was rapidly corrected. Then perhaps onset of "the leans" caused FO to rapidly roll aircraft back in the original direction, causing upset and loss of control.


Time will tell. Report in June they say.
