  1. yep, mass is still the same. It generates more rolling resistance but its hardly measurable compared to air drag resistance at 230+ mph especially with high downforce configuration like F1. Acceleration is still reduced because X% of the power is used just to maintain speed against the high drag, only the rest is used for acceleration. not because of more weight/mass. At the same time, increased down force means MORE power to the ground exiting corners. for breaking, downforce helps twice, both increasing grip/max braking power, plus acting like air brakes. F1 with active aero would be completely insane

  2.  @Curt_Sampson mass is the same on Mars but the low gravity means it would have shitty traction thus shitty acceleration. but much higher top speed thanks to low atmospheric pressure
