Are the side protection beams hollow? RB being RB I wouldn't be surprised if there's a slot(towards their extremities) at the back to help guide air around the pods... Maybe even something F-duct-ish.
Yes, the side protection beams are hollow. No, they can't put slots in it - it is a supplied part.
However, I doubt the side protection beams are just sitting in the airflow - they have bodywork around them. That could have a slot in it. But it doesn't really matter if you can't get air to feed the slot.
