Yea and I think the Ice skate count as part of the floor. Perhaps Mercedes has learned to develop the floor without the Ice skates in anticipation of this rule change.
But the Merc does feature ‘skates’ at the floor edge and has done for some time.
This are not the same in function when you look at it.
Mercedes metal floor edges are strictly for wear purposes. And the stand-offs on top allow slight flexing of the edge.
Ice skate of Ferrari and redBull keep a gap to the road when the bottom of floor flexes and also guide air near the diffuser throat.
