Driving 140km/h (87mph) is pretty fast and the engine is working hard and producing more heat. Maybe check your coolant level so your cooling system is able to do it's best. If this were an older car, I would suggest checking the thermostat to see if it's opening all the way to allow maximum coolant flow.
