That is just not the case!

They are designed to keep the front of the vehicle from lifting up and therefore enhance traction. At the same time and as a secondary system they vent the engine compartment.
Firstly aerodynamics, secondary, warm up, well, that’s the theory
 
Suppose its better than using a piece of carpet between grill n radiator like on my 1962 Cortina 1200......happy days

I sold my 850 Mini to buy a mk1 Ford Lotus Cortina ..........................But once I got shot of the mini the guy would not sell me the Cortina.

I was gutted to say the least.
I sold my Cortina 1200, bought a mini 850 and then went to Cortina 1965 1500 GT, white with red side flashes, absolutely loved that car
