Air humming sound in R56 JCW

Whistling sound (Air humming sound) on my JCW
Hi People,

Can anyone tell me whats the possible cause of the air humming sound I hear on my R56 JCW 2009. I usually hear it when I reach a speed of 80-90mph; the faster I go, the louder the sound. I think its coming from the rt passenger side, near the window or AC vent. Is it normal for MINI JCW especially on high speed? It sounded like air resistance but I was wondering why only on the rt side? Was the car poorly designed aerodynamically or do I have problem with my door rubbers (defeating air tightness)?

My car is a stock MINI R56 JCW 2009, no exterior modification yet.
Inputs and comments will be appreciated.

Thanks....
