Their low-rake -- long-wheel base makes the car nimble. Especially at the front. That's why we saw Hamilton slide a lot, because they had to run maximum front downforce, but since the car is lazy (understeery) at the front, they have to run slightly less downforce at the rear to make car rotate easier. But the problem with this setup is that the car is unbalanced, especially on corner exits.
Won't it be less nimble with a long wheelbase?
Yeah sorry, I meant the opposite o nimble. I think the word is inept.
Ah, then clumsy (or lazy) would be the word you're looking for
(although you had already described it correctly as 'understeery', or "prone to more understeer" if you wanna make the Queen especially pleased
)
