Some teams have under floor designs not as susceptible to stalling so the floor flexing down actually benefits them because it acts like a skirt. Some teams like Merc tried to put skid blocks on the corner of the floor so it wouldn't get damaged upon the flexing down and touching the track, but porpoising happened hence the stiffening stays have returned. So idk I think merc have some floor issues.
RB has upgrades coming in on Saturday.

I agree - I think they're too brilliant to not fix their issues but as of right now Merc doesn't look too great.
Neither does McLaren.
I'm all aboard the red white and blue Haas train as a backup to McLaren.
