The front "scoop", or intake area, isn't designed to limit air from going down. If there was no chance of air going through the bottom of the car, we wouldn't need race-type wings to increase downforce and keep the car planted at high speeds.
i dont have a numeric value but i dont think there's much air going under the car when compared to above it. so i dont think there much of this parachute effect from the rear bumper.

i think you're exaggerating a bit too much. you need to sit down and have some strawberry Pocky.
