During qualifying, teams are limited in what compounds they can use in dry conditions. Teams are required to use the hard compound during Q1, the medium compound during Q2, and finally they can use the softs during Q3.

Another “win” for the fucking incompetent manifestation that is dominicali. Finding things that aren’t broke and break them. That must be his mission statement that gets him out of bed every morning.
As a general rule, when in doubt, ask what that fucktard would do and the do the exact opposite for a guaranteed win. Absolutely clown shoes. When will this idiot finally pound sand?

Not really sure I understand why this change is bad...i mean current setup is not much better, everyone just runs softs, unless it's wet. Before these changes at least tire choice impacted the race as teams in Q3 had to use same tire in race as they used in qualiy. This change is gonna screw with teams that don't do well on hards (cough merc cough).. Not sure it will hurt slower team's but probably. Anyone has data on time deltas by tire type for some teams? Is the delta larger with certain tires?

Are you saying that this rule change is somehow goint to help Ferrari or are you saying that the incompetent man led the incompetent team?

I'm saying you can take someone out of Ferrari but you can't take the "we are checking" out of them.
