In the watermelon image posted I can visualize the car in the melon.

I can see very little air going over the center-line, and all that air hitting the mirrors at the quarter-line.

I can see the top of the side windows being the point where a battle to equalize air flow pressures ensues.

I can see a small amount of air going along the sides.
