A slotted wing question

[Nguyen Nguyen]

Hello,

The manufacturer of the below wing claims that the wide center slot provides additional stability. They also claims that the wing design is on LeMan cars and others. Intuitively, it seems that the center slot would cause more drag. Don't you think? Does someone happen to have any image of any modern race car with this type of wing design? Many thanks for any comment.

ps: If the image doesn't show up here, please
paste the below on your web browser to see the wing. Thanks.

ps I dont know your intended application for the wing but remember they are air brakes and stay away from those with to much down force fixed.you will be stuck with a cool looking boat anchor that slows your ride

Can someone crop that pic so it doesn't waste so much screen space.

Can someone crop that pic so that it doesn't show up at all?
