Ferrari SF23

A place to discuss the characteristics of the cars in Formula One, both current as well as historical. Laptimes, driver worshipping and team chatter do not belong here.

The first (Miami) photo is taken more from above and the light is more favorable.
I see, maybe, that the right yellow little-hand points to a little change.
If there are changes to the floor edge, I think they are more towards the front of the car.

floor fences were circled on the upgrade list aswell. I agree with you here that I think it is a matter angles again. I tried to spot any differences in the diffuser, I can't seem to spot any either.

About the diffuser as well, it's a hard work to find any difference.
Maybe the angle of the keel is different, but it might be a matter of angle of the shot again.

Well the edge is literally vertical now

Good.
Here we see the entry of the Venturi channels, another area decleared changed to the FIA. It's hard here too, to see differences, also because we don't have clear photos of this area at all from the start of the season.
We should see from the side too, to better understand.

In short, Miami is stingy with understandable photos.
Here another one:

Looks like a big change of the loor leading edge, outboard section is raised a lot (near the outboard turning vane), compare to the photo bellow. This feeds the air towards floor sealing vortex and should improve floor performance across the whole span of car's attitudes. It might also increase the drag a bit.

I think that diffuser kick is starting a bit more forward than that one used in Baku.

To me, it's the same as this (I think from Jeddah):

Hard to tell, looks the same to me. Comparison photo from Jeddah. Look out for a similar angle from Florida to see if there were any changes.
