That Jaguar image is especially interesting; I wonder how they calculated contribution to overall drag--gauge pressure and surface inclination?
Scibor-Rylski, again (I find myself quoting him a lot lately--he has more of a way with words than a lot of other technical authors):

The aerodynamic force is the net result of all the variably distributed pressures which the airstream exerts on the car surface.
