TEM · PL · ATE · BAR · TON · VEH · IC · LES · FL · OW · ING · FI · BB · ER · MI · LS · AP · HAN · DBR · AKE

HANDBRAKE is built by combining the tiles HAN · DBR · AKE in order. Because those tiles come out of the shared bank, locking in HANDBRAKE early also narrows what's left for the other six clues.
