The new version of F 1 qualifying was spurned by everyone, but some teams supported the new qualifying, such as Power India. Force India believes that the new version of qualifying makes Q 1 and Q2 more exciting, which is also a good thing.

Bob Fernley, deputy director of the Indian Power Group, said, "I hope everyone will consider it from our standpoint. Maybe we should give more time. Now everyone is overreacting to the new ranking. "

The main reason why the new ranking was attacked was that in Q3, when Mercedes made amazing laps, competitors were no longer willing to go out and do useless work, resulting in last-minute silence. But Q 1 and Q2 are quite lively.

"When was the last time you saw such lively Q 1 and Q2?" Bob Feinley said. "Why do we only focus on the third quarter and not on Q 1? Q2 looks better than before. So why don't we make some changes to the new rules (instead of abolishing them directly)? "

"We haven't seen super soft tyres since Q 1 in qualifying before, and many drivers have made mistakes. The 90-second elimination system has put pressure on some team drivers. These are the advantages of the new rules. "
