P13 through 9 all in the pits. FFS FOM

 

[Staab]

It's so goddamn infuriating, like fucking seriously, I'm pissed at this shit now.

 

[nny]

Ffs...just allow each driver 1 lap and get on with it.

 

[hamchan]

I sure hope they retry this qualifying for the third race.

Just give it a chance guys! It'll be good one day!

 

[Frankfurter]

Hulk alone on the track lol

 

[Yagami_Sama]

Vandoorne dia a great job.

If he scores a few points in this race, will be quite a feat.

 

[ElTorro]

Pretty boring so far.

 

[SmartWaffles]

6 mins left and there is only ONE car on the track. Great decision making FIA.

 

[Elvin Atombender]

It's very exciting watching cars in the pits waiting to get eliminated...

 

[SictorVullivan]

This format is pure trash, seriously nothing was wrong with last year's qualifying format.

 

[nny]

Good job Vandoorme and Crashean.

 

[Stop It]

Also. 5 minutes to go and it's ice cream time.

Only 1 car on track. This is Formula 1 now? Whoops.

 

[nature boy]

This is seriously depressing.

 

[Yagami_Sama]

I think that I will watch Moto 3 for a while.

 

[Xirj]

Maybe by the Montreal race things will be different? Otherwise, Saturday might be real boring.

 

[nny]

Now I get it: the 1 in Formula 1 stands for the number of cars on track during quali.

 

[DrM]

So much action

 

[ramparter]

P13 through 9 all in the pits. FFS FOM

I think teams are trying too much to make it bad though.

 

[AndyVirus]

One lap of interest in the last 7 minutes of a session. Excitement.

 

[nekkid]

Good guys Williams - giving us something to watch.

 

[DrM]

max getting a speeding ticket

Hulk sounded quite sad

 

[Xando]

Man this is really boring.

What happened to F1 guys

 

[SictorVullivan]

I think teams are trying too much to make it bad though.

Yeah, could be doing it to prove the format is broken.

 

[hamchan]

Good guys Williams - giving us something to watch.

"Why?"

 

[spuckthew]

Now I get it: the 1 in Formula 1 stands for the number of cars on track during quali.

That actually used to be a thing (or maybe it was one driver released from pits after x amount of time - can't remember exactly).

 

[nature boy]

Haas doing a great job.

Wtf is williams thinking?

 

[DrM]

Wtf is williams thinking?

Destroying their tyres

 

[nekkid]

Yeah, could be doing it to prove the format is broken.

You reckon? I thought some of them were doing their best to make look interesting.

"Why?"

Fuck knows why. Just glad there's something on the track.

We had single-lap qualifying from I think 2003 to 2005? Was great.

 

[Zeknurn]

Formula E FP1 is live on youtube and Dailymotion. Just saying.

 

[Staab]

Yeahhh....

 

[nny]

Someone promissed Williams a nice sum if they tried to make quali more lively...

 

[Yagami_Sama]

I failed to understand what Williams is doing.

 

[SictorVullivan]

Yeahhh....

Ahaahah amazing

 

[Stop It]

One lap of interest in the last 7 minutes of a session. Excitement.

I think you are a victim of autocorrect. Surely that meant to say Excrement.

There's lots of things that can make Formula 1 better. This is not even close to the point. Bernie has gone mad and this sop to avoid something more stupid like time ballast is almost as bad.

 

[GrizzleBoy]

Very impressed with Haas and ro gro.

Shows that not every new team has to be an HRT or Marussia.

 

[A Fish Aficionado]

Way more exciting than F1. Embrace the future.

 

[nature boy]

Destroying their tyres

Can only think they wanted to show their sponsors.

 

[Mastah]

We had single-lap qualifying from I think 2003 to 2005? Was great.

Not for fans on the track and viewers, because apparently one of the reasons they went to current Q1/2/3 was that TV figures tanked during that period.

Yeah, I know that I'm in the minority on that one.

 

[Tempy]

Rubbing in some new supersoft set for Q3? I dunno.

 

[ramparter]

That actually used to be a thing (or maybe it was one driver released from pits after x amount of time - can't remember exactly).

I think when the car in front started his hot lap the next guy left the pits. So when he completed his lap the next driver started his own after a few seconds.

It was crap.

 

[ElTorro]

The drivers should just have fist fights to determine the grid.

 

[DrM]

Ron already talking about replacing Button with Stoffel

 

[Elvin Atombender]

Destroying their tyres

They probably changed to the tyres they want to start the race on.

 

[ramparter]

Haas the best thing of this season so far.

 

[NewDust]

It's not just the poorly thought out qualifing format that makes it bad, but this years tire rules are really fucked up (and unclear to novices).

 

[Lunar FC]

Alt+F1 pod had some good quali ideas. Playing boggle was my favorite.

Bernie's Wheel of Qualifying.

 

[Yagami_Sama]

Let's predict how long the Q3 will last? I bet 5 minutes
