Quoting the article
Rossi suggested greater braking forces are a major contributing factor.
"It's curious. For me there must be a technical answer to this problem," he said.
"The pressure that you have on your arms during the braking has increased.

I've taken one track day where they hired Ken and I found it more my style than CSS. Now that Dave Moss guy, he's like the Riddler???? |
i was just going to bring up these same examples, i know for me a lot of weight goes on my arms while squeezing my thighs. now this is only on super tight turns like turn 10 at thil, you are plus 90 coming into a slow corner= lots of weight on my arms, but turn 1 a long 90 deg sweeper most is asorbed by my thigh squeeze. most of our weight is above the seat, brake hard with no weight on your arms means you could have broke harder if you also used your arms. just my opinion.
