There is actually less drama with the new system. Nearly 1/3 of drivers in Q2 are eliminated after 1 attempt, not having enough time to get fresh tires and set fuel for a second attempt to move up the board.
As far as the top of the field, nothing has changed. Mercedes is still top dog in quali with Ferrari lagging behind by over .5 sec.
Really sad actually. Instead of talking about how great the new tire regs are and what it has done to the racing. All everyone is focusing on is politics.
