Grinding Noise - :/

[Croin]

Hey guys!

I am right now abroad and we have really bad roads here.
I was driving half an hour ago and suddenly (probably after a hit during parking to the chassis right before)

I am starting to hear a grinding noise inside the car:

• Velocity - dependent
• Frequency of the noise is directly proportional to the velocity of the car
• RPM - not dependent
• Loud/strong inside the car, with open windows hardly heard (comes from the middle of the car)
• Engaged or not engaged doesn't change the noise

But hear it yourself:

Thank you!

UPDATE:
I checked the handbreak and thats the problem! What can I do with it?
