This happens when the front of the car does not have as much grip as the driver wants, and the car has a tendency to plough straight on at a corner. It wears out the front tyres and slows the car down. The car can be adjusted to try to cancel it out, usually by increasing the amount of downforce at the front, or changing the suspension settings. On the track, the only real way to deal with it is to enter the corner at a slower speed, although some drivers can find ways to minimise its effects.
