Have you checked the brake fluid reservoir?

That light will come on if your brake fluid is low because your brake pads have worn down. Fill it up and check your pads to make sure you've got plenty left and you'll be fine.

That was happening to me for a while when I took hard corners, when I figured it out and filled it up the problem went away.
