The LCI cars in the UK use active aerodynamics as part of Efficient Dynamics which is all designed to save fuel/energy. Active aerodynamics also includes brake cooling flaps that stay closed when cruising and open when required for brake cooling. So if you guys want to save fuel leave them closed if your not bothered open them, I would assume if they are blanked of then your brakes probably dont get hot enough under normal conditions to ever warrant cooling.

with this info, im gonna keep them opened in summer, and in winter, when its cooled.ill just close them back. It'll take me 5 min to do each side.
