MODERATORS
Well to speculate I see two different things it could be. One the gearbox was weak in top gear forcing them to cut power when it was top gear. Or it has something to do with torque vectoring. The article said that Aston had to run more rear wing. Maybe the gear box caused poor traction on the turns. Requiring more down force and increasing drag.
