Dollar$ 0 Report post Posted June 1, 2007 I hate this 3 period style of quali. the last part is a total waste of 15 mins. why do they have to "burn off" fuel? & anyway i really liked one lap quali because you got to see every drivers whole lap. I know that the track rubbers in so the last runner has the advantage in that system. But why couldn't we have 1 half hour period where they start with race fuel & at the end of the half hr the quickest driver gets to chose his slot for single lap quali in the last half hr? that way the track would not be as green & more even for all. plus we would get to see all the drivers hot laps Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jem of the Shire 0 Report post Posted June 1, 2007 i think the current format is a lot more exciting and tense than single-lap. Plus its been changed too many times in recent years Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sato 0 Report post Posted June 1, 2007 99.9% of people enjoy the qualifying system we have now, please let it be, finally. I also enjoyed single lap quali, but not that many seemed to agree. I must say I do anyone the current system the most out of them all though, by a fair distance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lalindra 0 Report post Posted June 1, 2007 Yep current system is much better than the one lap thing. But I like the quali system which was there from 2002-2004. No fuel burning or hurrying up. Just hot laps and many of them to post the time Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Taku 0 Report post Posted June 3, 2007 I also really like the current system, but I do wish the TV coverage was better, maybe a split-screen option. i want to be able to choose which driver's onboard camera i want to ride with anytime in the race. the technology is there i hate it we're not using it.

reds88 0 Report post Posted June 3, 2007 I prefer the current qualifying system than the one lap qualifying. If something can done to the fuel burning phase in q3 without affecting race strategy, then I think it would be perfect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dollar$ 0 Report post Posted June 3, 2007 cheers for the replys guys. i was just wondering bout other ppls views. most seem to like this quali set up. Fair play it's just i always liked seeing each drivers line & how they coped with nailing it over one lap. got to see all the different driving styles which is sometimes tricky on tv.

Jerzol 0 Report post Posted June 3, 2007 Hush you lot, what if Bernie reads this Qualifying right now is more exciting than the race. Well said. I have the same impression that I often enjoy qualifying more than the race. Especially the race like the last one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
