Hasnt the exhaust been moved backwards a little?

[Schulteiss]

Ok, so far no visible changes. Maybe the tweet posted yesterday was false?

edit: Now I read that this pic isn't from today. Has anyone seen the updated version yet?

Floor is visibly new. I think it would be worthwhile to compare yesterdays side view pics to todays of the front. FW end-plates seem a little bit different. The pic is from today. Brawn had said last week that the upgrades will not be visually striking.

There seems to be something different at the rear end of the floor but apart from that I can't see any other visible differences. Did anyone notice anything that I missed?

Nope. Besides a new floor there are no visible changes at all .. I was hoping for new exhaust layouts and some new brake ducts

I think they have an updated rear wing. On today's pictures pictures you can see from the front that the main plane has a downward slope near the endplates. On yesterday's pictures it is just flat.

Rear wing already debuted 3 days ago. I think it was Rosberg in the first day that tried it.

they've covered off the outer section of the exhaust evaluation area (which in the pic below from yesterday seemed to have an outer channel) with silver bodywork... ..may mean they've finalized their exhaust position.

The burn trail on that sidepod shows a surprisingly wide scope from the exhaust; up as high as (and over) the silver paint, and as low as the grandstand reflection line..

I always expected the exhaust stream to be much more direct and concentrated than that.

I really like the Frontwing endplates on this car. After years of driving with that simple FW, this one is not only more complex, but also extremely good looking

I think it's flow is highly dependent on the speed of the car. So it my be a concentrated flow but diverted through different paths over the course of a lap.

I may be due to wind which blew the exhaust gas about the exhaust steam its pretty obvious Mercedes is blowing the whole rear instead of the side of the diffuser like what RB and Sauber did cuz there is no bodywork to direct the exhaust
