I think they are valid in their thinking if they are able to use the total air from both the top and the bottom best to aid downforce. I also think those with the "Stepped" nose will have turbulance because of the step that may buffet and cause unwanted vortices that inhibit downforce.
Ciao.
Forza Ferrari!!!!
