Some advantages with adding weight that I could think of.
*The unsprung mass(suspension/wheels) relative to the sprung mass is lowered.
*Tyre to road friction is most often not directly proportional to tyre load. (Fy= μ*mg) μ is actually dependant on the load of the tyre. Adding weight adds load to the tyre and depending on the tyre characteristics it could produce more (or less) friction so that the car can corner faster.
