the five points mentioned are
1- higher safety at high speeds
2- less danger of skidding and sliding (improved road handling)
3- improved acceleration
4- less wear and tear on tires
5- higher fuel efficiancy

I have an original test of the Hermes aerofoil

The tester reported that they probably would have got better results if they had used the cardboard box the thing was packed in , instead of the aerofoil itself !
