4 wheels at the rear I can understand sort of, but surely 4 wheels at the front reduces the turning circle and increases drag?

Do you think
Of course, Ferrari's are well known for their inherent understeer and need 4 contact patches at the front to remove it

Smaller tyres on the front reduce aerodynamic drag, also you have an extra set of brakes and more contact area for the tyres.
