I guess only the team knows.

To your point, we dont know which test failed. Typically it's the front ones that are hard I think. I believe the only components involved in those tests is the monocoque and front crash structure (internal core of nose). No suspension, wings, etc. So a questionable suspension design "shouldn't" impact the crash testing?
