Also note that the front wing will take out top speed more than usual, well what I'm used to at least.
I don't think these cars have been running more rake setups. Maybe while the car is in the garage it seems like more rake, since the ride heights we see there are static car readings. When running on track and with speed, the drag on the wings should affect ride heights and probably bring that rear down as it were with these cars, I suppose. This more downforce that's created should help prevent rear tyre overheating, and maybe you guys had a lack of downforce and a problem there. I'm guessing.
The fuel load brings a bit less acceleration and top speed but most importantly the weight to the rear of the car. So it makes it understeery in the early run, but then as it lightens it gets balanced towards neutral or oversteer. This is kind of the result I have at least.
