Just thought ad take a pic for those who aint seen the undertray/ diffuser, has some nice f1 style holes that i dont think add down force but more direct air into the engine bay..... might be an ideal could air feed....although no going through puddles lol

The ducts are NACA ducts and they're there to scavenge air to improve the cooling in the engine "bay".

They won't contribute to downforce I'm afraid.

If anyone is interested I'm involved in a project to design a diffuser for the car which in combination with a front splitter will, hopefully, generate some meaningful downforce - main problems, apart from fabrication, are to get the 7 to 12 degree upsweep you ideally want is tricky given how low the rear is and the need to integrate whatever design into the existing floor without compromising the secondary air flow coming from those NACA ducts.
