Which exactly change? You are using a different estimator of a
variance-covariance matrix for the Wald test, so naturally your
results are going to be different. If you specify -vce(robust)-, you
admit that your data are heteroskedastic, and the sums of squares do
not make sense, so F-test is only available as Wald test, not the
sums-of-squares-ratio test. In this sense, it is more akin to chi2
reported with -ml- models.
