I'm guessing that because the roof plane is less than 22 degrees that air flow stays attached.

I'll go further in suggesting that the wing adds a small amount of down-force at the expense of a little bit of drag.

Overall a very nice clean car, add a chin spoiler and then drive like a little old lady and save a lot of gas.
