Re: Official Australian GP Qualifying thread
why don't they just re-introduce one-shot qualifying if they just want drivers to set their fastest times on the first try? this new system is a joke! qualy wasn't broken to begin with. the problem with formula 1? fixing things that ain't broken, then breaking it.
