I was watching some rally racing on tv and noticed that the subaru rally car
has a scoop on the roof by the windshield. What is the purpose of that
scoop?

It is for ventilation into the cockpit.

The scoops on the roof are for both driver and navigator cool/fresh air
(vent), as there is no AC in a rally race car.
The other is a camera housing, to record and broadcast the "first person"
view you see on tv as that car is running it's stage.

PS. What channel and when did see that race on tv? Rally coverage is very
rare in my area............CC
