Wings. Adrian Newey is creating slowly but surely, wings.

The inlet gets narrower and narrower, up to a point you can stop looking at the intake role of the damn thing but have to look at the shape of the pods to realize; these are actually kinda like wings. And wings are good at airflow direction, so tons of downforce.

You know what wings are also good at? Lift. On the straights the wheels touching the tarmac just enough to transfer power 100% but no more than that, less friction with tarmac.

Adrian is going to introduce Lift via Pod Wings πŸ˜€
