Getting off topic here.

I've read good discussions on that topic (in a Physics forum), and would rather not revisit them here.

If you want to learn more about velocity and pressure try Googling divergent and convergent thrust ducts as I did for my hovercraft research.

Back to the topic of air management, I think Ferrari's claims are overreaching but that there is something valid to it.

Just my opinion.
