Air is going under there whether you like it or not. There is only so much air you can block/deflect. But, if you can speed it up you can use the air more effectively.

I'm in no way an expert, hell, I can't make a paper airplane that flies straight, but watched a great, two hour long, aerodynamics video a few years ago, fasinating and informative. James May would've loved it. Could I find it in a google search?? Nope... Grrrrr. Sorry, I tried

Check out most supercars, lots of them have it too. The McLaren F1 was born in the wind tunnel. Gordon Murray wanted air to go down the middle.
