AFAIK it's quite similar to the induced drag generated by the winglets in aircraft, in contrast to parasitic drag. Odd enough, as the wings fitted to cars have an effect opposite to the one of an aircraft, what could be said about the wing of a current model Porsche 911 GT3? It has some parts which resemble a winglet.
