Strange indeed, but I guess that rake angle, suspension geometries and settings, FRIC, etc. all play a part in how the car behaves at high speed under aerodynamic load.

If tire pressure loss during the FCY period was so extreme and was indeed the main reason for the excessive wear, I trust that Audi Sport have sufficient evidence of this. Whether this evidence will be sufficient to succeed on appeal is a different story.
