It's hilarious because everybody got it wrong, but this new format if I'm being serious is complete fucking trash.

This qualifying format is fucking savage
>>66259995
yes, at the end of the session everyone can finish their lap, as it used to be
>>66260015
pretty much
That was the best q1 in years desu
>>66259981
Let them finish the lap every 90 second cut and it's perfect.
LEAVE HAAS ALONE!
The fucking HAASes ran in 1.26, this is so unfair for them

Guys can we have a moment of silence for formula 1
Demon
What a shit format. Just give them a 30min window go set lap times and leave it at that. This gimmicky shit is killing F1, take a leaf out of WEC's boom and treat it like a sport instead of TV show.

is Hamilton actually the best driver or is he just a good driver who has a Mercedeswinslol ?
>>66260376
He gambled wrong.
>It looks like a game console
what the fuck m8
Why difference will it make if people will be allowed to finish the lap? None. Think about it.
I thought these new rules were supposed to prevent each team being on their own row.
Q1, everybody rushes and fucks up
Q2, everybody gives up
Q3, Hamilton Wins
Fucking shit system
I don't like it.
>>66260397
yes
>>66260376
>I'll sit in the garage while others are improving
>oh I got knocked out, how shocking
>>66260397
1. Hamilton is very good
2. The Mercedes is very good
any questions?
Ferrari confirmed sandbagging
STR is 0.1s behind them on an older engine
NO ONE ON TRACK
HAHAHAH
BLUNDER OF THE YEAR
>>66260397
Option 2 senpai
HAHAHAHA this qualifying is going to go down in history. No way they run this again.
>>66260397
hes the best driver
who happens to be in the best car
So teams basically run out of tires so fast that they stay in pits regardless of being knocked out.
So really, nothing changes. The only possible miracle of Haas going Q2 was in fact fucked by the new format. I dunno guys.
>>66260400
The color makes it look like that
>this qualy
its comedy gold, i love it, because they are fucked no matter what, they don't have time to do the lap, its glorious lmao.

What they would need to do is load the car with enough fuel for 2 runs then come into the pits and change the tires like a race pit-stop,
>no tyres left
fucking Pirelli
How do we fix the quali?
*mad max doing home work while on car**
This actually means less cars are on track because normally these guys will have an extra 4 minutes to do more laps.
And fucking look at this
Everyone just waited in their fucking pitboxes waiting for it all to end
Bottas killed his back again lads
Why aren't you guys thrilled right now?
Our favourite driver and celebrity Lewis has a great shot at the title again!
EVERYONE loves Lewis and wants him to win. We're doing it again! This is GREAT!
#Blesssed
>>66260397
yes, don't listen the 2ndberg shills, hamilton is the best
So instead of an exciting end to qualifying we get an exciting start and shit end. Great.
>>66260464
at this rate he will be the new kovalainen
>>66260464
Buttass is done. He's peaked, couldn't even keep up with Massa, now he's done.
>>66260480
Bring back the old, tested and true quali.
>>66260480
let them finish the bloody lap
>>66260437
They clearly haven't read the rules.
>>66260455
They probably don't have any new tires.
>>66260473
Hamilton is very good family
Annoyingly so
>>66260480
Use Michelin tires in quali, Pirelli in race
Button on sky, the new format doesn't really change anything, so another year for MWL HWL
>>66260397
Put amx in that car and watch him win 10 wdcs

dubs confirm
>>66260522
No moron, they only get to finish it if they already started the lap when the 90 seconds are over.
These new quali are shit. They can't even finish their lap. It's not entertaining at all. I prefered the format that we had before 2006 desu.
>typical Australian family
This is 2012 all over again, isn't it lads? P9, just like P11 back then, gives you a strong shot at the podium, and Perez has some extensive experience with doing just that.
>>66260548
uuuu
if they could finish the lap it would've ended with cars on track, they didn't give up - they just didn't have enough time to change tires and do another out lap and a fast lap, which takes ~3:30 in total. when people are getting officially eliminated they were actually basically eliminated like 1 or 2 mintues earlier, you just have to watch for whos in the pits and whos on the track, and you have to watch 1-2 spots above the actual elimination spot
they also need to add something in the graphic that tells you if their current lap is going to possibly be fast enough or not, cause that's whats decided 4-5 of these but u can only know if you're watching live timing

The more I think about it, the more I'm not a fan of these format.
DESU its there own fault if they can't finish their lap because they all have enough time to get a fast lap in, but it promotes a shit end to a qualifying session.

Let the drivers finish the laps and make Q3 just good old normal Q3 or if you want excitement make it turn-based one hot lap like in 2000s. As it is we don't really see fastest laps anyway, they're trying to appease people on track when I think they should rather appease people watching TV.
And even for those on track, no fucking cars are on track anyway. NOBODY is going out in Q2/Q3 after their first runs.

System works well for Q1 but it should go back to what it was for 2 and 3
MAD MAX VERSTAPPEN IS THE GOAT
>MAS, VES and VET not going out

Q3 will be utter shit with this system

Before they tried a second lap. Now everybody is just doing one lap at the start and that's it
THANK YOU FIA
FUCK YOU

>le gimi got tired
>gonna get le ice cream
Well they have officially fucked up F1 qualifying, watching everyone sit in pit lane is shithouse.
this is fucking retarded
>this Q3 format
desu Mercedes is still faster than Ferrari, Rosbeta just fucked up
wew what a climax
>CLUSTERFUCK
>Only Rosberg in track
Great job FIA
NOT PLANNING TO GO OUT THIS NEW FORMAT SURE IS GREAT
This sure is interesting
>>66260767
I actually think that this format is fine for Q3, but for the first 2 sessions just bring it back as it was.
What the fuck is Ferrari doing fuck this shit.
MERCEDES
WINS
LOL
Now Vettel won't come out as well, nor Kimi
I'll be honest and say I thought ot would be more exciting
>5 min left
>Only kekburg on the track
>drivers out of cars
New format is exciting!
HAM ROS VET LEL
Ferrari gave up and rosberg can't do shit
Might as well hand the WDC trophy to lewis now
>>66260739
Engines. They literally said themselves that they expected it to happen.
HAMROSVET
The problem with this quali format is that drivers would rather accept that they're out rather than battle for position. What was expected to be the main selling point of this format, ie. drivers battling frantically to set a time that moves them up from the last spot, becomes a waiting game. The problems will pile up the longer the track is. Spa would be tantalizingly boring.
I say they'll scrap it before Monaco
HAM
ROS
VET
Seriously was someone completely drunk when they came up with this qualifying format?
>only Mercedes is competing anyway
>>66260741
That was expected thanks to engines. Their chassis is almost as good as Red Bull and their engines are much much better.
>HAMROSVET
>7 mins left and everyone already on box
well shit ham ros vet again
>HAM ROS VET
WAKE ME UP INSIDE
Someone thought that having a simple time limit and seeing who's the fastest and sorting the grid by fastest lap times was a bad system and needed a change.
This is fucking hilarious.
They'll change that rule before Barcelona, I bet

it was fun guys see you next season
This system is fucking trash
>not going out: the show
TWO AND A HALF MINUTES LEFT AND NO ONE ON TRACK FUCK THIS SHIT
okay this format was okay for q1 but q3 needs to be the shoot out, just let them run
they'll change it back
won't they?
HAMROSVET
THERE IS STILL 3 MINUTES
LMAO
Why can't all other teams figure out how Mercs are so quick and build something similar?
>Just wake up
>Hamilton on top again
Great, not only is Mercedes well clear of Ferrari, but Ferrari is far ahead of the next team. Hamilton is on another level from Rosberg, and Kimi will never challenge Vettel.
1>>>>>2>>>>>>3>>>>>>>4
There's going to be absolutely no battles up front.
HAM
ROSE

Nothing changed...oh no wait it did. It became worse. Look guys no cars on the track!
>>66260909
the rules don't allow it
OK where's that poll
I changed my mind, this is pure crap
500 dollars for the seat
What's happening with Q3 tyres anyway for the race?
>Ferrari can't beat Mercedes
>Doesn't even have to defend their back as everyone else runs out of time
Lets give a warm round of applause to FIA for this wonderful qualyfing format
>>66260867
Not much changed tbph, average teams just take one lap and accept their fate, Merc and Ferrari make one lap in the beginning, wait in pits for some minutes and then go out for the final battle
>5 minutes until end of Q3
>everybody is out of their cars already
>>66260909
it's their engine. it's like 200bhp more powerful than everyone elses
Fuck this shit honestly, I'm going to watch bowling or snooker championships instead of F1
(until bernie dies).
this system is fucking retarded
F1 is dead. Pay your respects.
Fucking fail.
Well. Q3 was shit

Give me one good fucking reason to watch the rest of this season.
Now that this garbage quali is over, I'd like to remind you The Decision starts today at 17:00 GMT. Hopefully it will be more entertaining than this.
American announcers are explaining how shit this is perfectly
thank god I'm stealing the coverage and not paying anything to fund this garbage
MotoGP when?
MWL
That Q3
Fuck this shit.
You cannot defend this shit.
Did I make a mistake deciding to watch F1?
WOW THIS NEW QUALI IS JUST AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111111
Jesus fucking christ this sport never fails to disappoint me in ways I couldn't have even imagined
FUCK
F1
Seriously this new format might be fun in Q1 if tweaked a little. Maybe Q2 as well, but this is ultimate shit for Q3
>>66260948
they create 20 new quali formats and pull one out of a hat before each race
>>66260881
That's kinda true. I'd much rather an exciting end to the session and boring start as opposed to this garbage though. I'm glad I didn't buy a ticket to the Saturday this year, I'd feel ripped off big time.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA
LAST FEW SECONDS LADS
That was the worst qualifying I've ever seen.
Kek even Toto Wolff is already smashing the new quali format
I'm not even wasting my time with F1 this year, i'll only be shitposting during the weekdays
>>66260909
Limited engine development thanks to tokens and other rules. They literally can't catch up even if they start copying Mercs.
For that matter, limited resources for engine development. Mercedes is spending insane money on engines, and it pays off.
Unlimited tire supply for qualifying when?
>>66260948
people might die
http://strawpoll.me/7120983
So how long will it take for Ferrari to pay off haas to deliberately block HAM in q1?
only thing that would make this season interesting at this point is that mercedes has some failure in their motor and they blow up first 5 races with 0 points lol
The only thing worse than the qualifying is the fact that Mercedes is exactly as dominant as before.
>>66260970
Agree.
>>66260924
Ferrari didn't even go out, Mercs went out long before end of Q3, it could be like twice as short.
>>66261023
That's why we have a Mexican...to build a wall in front of Merc pits.
