It works on the back straight, too much vibration on the main straight? The activation happens at 300 plus KPH, not strong enough to push through this much pressure on the wing?
Those are the possibilities.
Not fixed for today, this will be a bad race for Aston.
If one of the 2 possibility are the cause, i would prefer to be the "High Speed Pressure and load" one and not the vibrations.
Maybe, and it's a "big" maybe, if it is in did due to very high speed load and pressure on the wing on the main straight, i say maybe, being able to stay close enough trying to pass, or being inside a DRS train in the main Straight, being in a tow/slipstream reduces that load and reduces that pressure on the wing so it may be able to open.
If that's the case, it would be a good thing and won't affect them much in the race.
If it is Vibrations they may experiment by opening it, 1 or 2 seconds l8r than normal.
