Some complain about the Pirelli tyres ruining F1 qualifying but things could be a whole lot worse. The Salzburgring round of the WTCC saw probably one of the weirdest qualifying sessions ever with drivers not wanting to be leading during their lap, as they’d get slipstreamed.
It resulted in everyone driving as slow as possible until they all ran out of time to do a lap. Epic fail.
In true FIA fashion, the stewards acted like absolute bloody morons about it, giving drivers penalties that were all different to one another. Well it’s good to see it’s not just F1 where they make stupid decisions…
