I don't think that it will have aerodynamic lift at higher speeds because of the engine. At low speed the front-/rear-weightdistribution will affect traction, at higher speeds it is entirely a matter of aerodynamics. You might be right that the huge amount of torque could be too much if there is just little weight on the rear axle.

I am not sure about the article but I have heard from various sources that Mercedes wants to skip the Kompressor-engines in favour for a 6.3-litre natural asp. V8 engine!
