5. air ducts on the carbon bonnet are functional and push air into the engine compartment. The bonnet is surprisingly flat in comparison to the CS and GTS bonnets on the F8x M3 and M4. There is no real bulge.
I believe this statement to be inacurate. The pupose of the hood slots is to vent air out of the engine compartment. This improve air flow through the radiators for better cooling, lowers air pressure under the hood and lessens the amount of air that escapes under the car for improved downforce.

That would prove the point.

Just think of it for a moment. Why would you want to put more air BEHIND the radiators? This would just reduce their efficiency. Then why would you want more air UNDER the hood, this would just increase the positive pressure under the hood and create lift. And last, since the air over the hood travels faster than the air below the hood it has a lower static pressure, unless it is a scoop or a NACA duct, any opening on the hood will suck air out from under it.
