I agree, worked well in BTCCReverse grids would have been excellent.
Which (bringing in the 'frontrunner starting from the back' example from above) begs the question, why are we bothering with qualifying at all then? The mercs, redbull at one end, the Williams and the Haas cars at the other. Everything in the middle changes but overall, races are decided by the technical makeup of the cars, not so much qualifying.Because they have used the current qualifying system for a long time people have come to think that its normal, but it's actually totally ridiculous.
Why would you give the fastest car an extra advantage.
Can you imagine before the 100m final at the Olympics, they inviting everyone down for a prerace-race. Then depending how they finish that race they start further down the track for the actual final. Usain Bolt starting with a 5m advantage.
Suspected broken jaw for Fernando.
Pre-season testing starts 4 weeks tomorrow.
