My guess is they underestimated the cooling requirements as the race was very warm. They trying to walk a razors edge with their performance as they have a good chance of second place this season between the three teams.
Feels like on the final year of a car, those types of issues should be down to a science. Ah well.
Not when you are down on aero performance. In that case, you will push the limit of the cooling to extract better aero performance.
