What I'm seeing is a lot of improvement. Your knees aren't sliding forward all the way to Canadia anymore, and you've managed to recalibrate to this correction and get your depth back. I see a LOT more hip drive than previously.
You still have some lumbar flexion in the hole. Tighten your gut and focus on lumbar extension at the bottom. You could also cut the depth off just a hair. As long as your hips drop below parallel, the rep is good--you don't need to get extra depth at the expense of lumbar flexion.
Your chest is much better, but your back angle still looks a just a tad flat to me. I'll be interested to hear what others have to say about it. This will require assiduous attention going forward. Don't let your back angle change in the hole.
Finally: eyeballs. Work on your gaze. This has much more powerful benefits than one would think. Fix your gaze at the top and keep it there. You will recall that this was salutary for your deadlift as well.
Also, agree with Slowjoe on the hooks--they're a little low. As you approach the bar for the squat (and the press) it should be at the middle of your sternum; presently your setting looks like its at the xiphoid/epigastrium. Congrats on the new Sumo rack. Mine has served me well.
Nice work. Time to add some weight to bar. You've got some posterior chain in the movement now, and you should be back to 100+ in no time.
