No, it's not RAM air, it's air moving at a given velocity producing what is called dynamic air pressure, not static air pressure.
Look, here's the deal with this scoop/ram air thing. This has been one of the most scientifically debunked concepts in the history of automotive technology, but it just won't die. And the reason it won't die is there's just some mysterious badassery about having a big scoop on your hood with which you just have to believe you're getting a big horsepower boost. The first time I saw that jeep liberty hood scoop, I nearly peed myself. Don't get me wrong, I love a big hood scoop. But any (albeit minor) performance gains you're getting have nothing to do with 'ramming' air into your intake, they're coming from a CAI effect.
Again, re-read the f1 tech site. We *want* very badly to believe that the scoop on the formula 1 car is 'ramming' air and so HAHA! PROVEN! But sadly, I'm going to take the Formula 1 engineers word on the subject... it ain't ram air.
I don't think anyone is a bad person, ignorant, less intelligent for believing in RAM air. Decades worth of various manufacturers (including Pontiac) have been using the 'RAM air' concept, and it's hardened up like cement and it's very hard to chip those concepts away.
This discussion is very popular on car forums. Here's a link to another back-and forth.
