New qualifying format
What do you think of the new "qualify on Saturday, set your position on Sunday" format? My initial reaction is that it is a reasonable approach to creating entertainment with only 33 or so entrants.

Re: New qualifying format
In my view this is more lipstick on a pig. Fix the pig.
Fuel allotment = X
Car Width = X
Car length = X
Car weight w/o driver = X
Tire size = X
ANY engine
fuel cell size unlimited
no wing restrictions
Go racing!Don't waste your time having a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent

Re: New qualifying format
We're stuck with the pig for now, so I'm hoping this qualifying approach -- and the quality of the drivers -- will help attract some more eyeballs. More eyeballs = more money = the end of spec racing. At least that's my hope.
