Great photo Jeff, the blur/dirt/greenery? in the foreground makes a change to the usual stones and pebbles.

Looked a real handful on that start, but the guy filming you had trouble keeping up

Well done.

Why does the front splitter have venturi bits introducing air to the front tyres?

I'd have thought that there'd be a little downstand in front of the wheels diverting air away.

I'm guessing here, but I think they are creating low pressure ahead of the transverse edge in front of the wheels - kind of like a diffuser does at the back - only at the front.

It's possible that while there will be a slightly greater mass of air hitting the front tyres, it will be at a much lower density, if that's the case, you get less drag & more downforce - but like I said, I'm guessing from a very limited knowledge of aero principles.

Great photo Jeff, and well done for a very successful weekend specially first time of using and already you have won.
As Mike has said, let us know when you are more local and we will pop along.
