I posted this image of the brand new Ferrari F60 America in a different thread that was discussing wheel well vents.
My question for all of you backyard aerodynamic gurus is: What effect would such a vent have on aerodynamics?
Would the airflow on the body right behind the tire at the outside of the vent opening become seriously disturbed, as it would have to "jump" to the body of the door?
Or would it merge/blend with the air coming out of the vent and maintain a laminar flow???
What effect would
hot air coming out of that vent be if the Ferrari was a front engine vehicle and not a mid-engine car?
I know historically, Ferrari was not interested in aero at all, just horsepower. Now they are of course considered leaders in aero. So it's kinda hard for me to think they would degrade the Cd for mere "styling."
