Yeah but You & I is an irrelevant 1D single, whereas Problem is the lead single for Ariana's new album and era. And it's already #2 on Billboard. Even people who aren't stans would watch it just because they know it by now. Her fans have been anticipating it for a month, so there's that too.
There's no way that it's the #2 streaming song in the country right now and that with all of the media outlets that have promoted it, combined with her stans trending it for like ten hours yesterday and trying to beat the Vevo record, that this has such low views. It's not possible.
Edit: For comparison you should look at 1D's single Best Song Ever which was their last lead single and set the first Vevo record of 12.3 million views in 24 hours.
