The arrangement is constructed with an air deflecting element held at the vehicle and extending in transverse direction of the vehicle which is arranged below an adjacent dome-shaped air catching and guiding element. It faces the deflecting element with its air inlet area and is located opposite an opening in the brake protection plate with its air outlet area.
