Aerodynamics rear tire contact patch

Is that for "cooling the rear tire" or putting downward pressure on the rear wheel or sending air up into the shock to cool it?

Dubious.
 
That’s the question. And the depends on which MotoGP engine answers. Ducati started this and the answers were quite dubious.
 
It looks a bit too sturdy to just divert air over the tire, so perhaps there's some downforce to be gained there.... quite fascinating if that is the purpose, getting enough clean air in that location that it makes a noticeable difference.
 
Mister Berger from HRC and FIM says it's an rear spoiler.. he also mentioned that this spoon is in charge for dirty air..
