I believe the evidence is there to. From my understanding it would be wiser to extend the cover all the way back to the outlet instead of having an open area of 30cm or so if they wanted to keep the higher velocity air at a higher rate, rather then it interfering with the outside air. Air usually wants to even out pressure differences rather fast, hence we can create lift and downforce from aerofoils.
I don't see air accelerating inside the sidepods either.
There IS a tube/cover that extends into the crash structure that's been postulated to exit out that opening in the back near the light. Look back a few pages and you'll see the image. It's been mentioned in passing on/off for the last week.
Yes there is a tube above it. I asked Scarbs would this be possible and he said yes, he was thinking about what that tube was being used for today. I saw the opening the day and mentioned it, then saw MazdaBoy's pic. I mentioned it somewhere else and one person claimed it's impossible. However Scarbs is saying different. I don't know either way. But it sure is clever if so.
What's everyones technical opinion?
