Downforce help following

Hi guys, during practice having engine points on acceleration make my times faster than it being added to downforce,  it I’m wondering dose clean air matter? I know while following someone in a race you lose time so dose adding downforce make it easier for you to follow? I ask this because I’m not currently fast enough to keep up once close to someone in the top 6 and struggle with anyone in the top 12 if behind, once ahead i pull free but fall behind the others, thanks 

Downforce helps in high speed corners, it doesn’t change anything in relation to dirty air afaik
