But in this case the team with the best reliability can drive the most laps on practice and therefore has an advantage. The teams with lesser reliability
could drive more laps on the practice, but with the cost of tuning down the engine or facing a retirement in the race.
Just another ferrari booster this one. Plus the idea of combining times and having to perform advanced mathematics just to see who got the pole is not a good idea.
I have a revolutionary idea for the FIA:
An open qualifying session with six laps, one hour in length. Lots of drama plus avoids the sensation anticlimax after your driver puts in a mediocre lap and some other guy walks away with the pole on a sligthly better mediocre lap. Plus the annoying first half of crap teams rolling their commercials on wheels around the track.
The best idea is to have a one hour open qualifying, 3 hot laps, with the hour divided in three 20 minute periods during which you have to make a time, so no waiting till the last moment and then rushing out to put the three laps, as was the problem of the old system, but an even, mixed flow of cars on the track.
