The $\mathbf{A}^1$-invariance of vector bundles have been discussed in, for example, this paper by Asok, Hoyois and Wendt. This of course implies storng $\mathbf{A}^1$-invariance results for the first etale cohomology group $H^1_{et}(-,\mathbb{G}_m)$$H^1_{\mathrm{et}}(-,\mathbb{G}_m)$. Are there any similar results for $H_{et}^2(-,\mathbb{G}_m)$$H_{\mathrm{et}}^2(-,\mathbb{G}_m)$ or the Brauer groups?
