I could name you 2 people in DD whose qualifying technique is to get out first on a clear track and put in their best laps. That is their choice. I prefer to go out last, and get a couple of easy laps in at the back before picking up my pace and overtaking people. I'm pretty sure that at least one of the 2 people got pole positions last year, and i'm also pretty sure I managed at least one pole. Just because someone gets out onto track first does not mean they are either the keenest, or the quickest. I still prefer either a quickest lap qualifying race or not to use the race for qualifying at all. But then it's not up to me. |
