places where there is tougher braking, (summer shootout) they want to get the brakes cooled quicker especially if they have limited time in the pits.

A lot of folks use large fans to help cool the engine between rounds as well as the brakes.

I guess I see that point. We mostly run on big tracks with minim braking and plenty of time between practices. Motors are are big concern.
