Remark of the working day

A new rule supposed to prevent collisions in qualifying is wonderful in idea, but…

They can make the direction as thorough and challenging as they like, but it all counts for absolutely nothing if it is not enforced. How a lot of periods very last year did motorists get absent with exactly this, inspite of exceeding the most lap time, simply because the stewards discovered some exterior element?

The only way to reach regularity is to implement the rule continually, not make a diverse rule. @Crimson-Andy
