I agree that the system as a whole is very fair indeed, but the fact that only the last 4 qualifying results are being taken into account puts N-Tech at a disadvantage as in 2 of the past 4 qualifying sessions we have had exceptional good results, making the test target average a very steep target to meet to get anything from the test session at all.
I haven't said my team was punished in the first test, I said we are now being punished for having 2 exceptional good qualifying results in 2 of the last 4 qualifying sessions, which drives down the average qualifying position and thus creating a very steep target for the second test.
And every team does not so much have the same chances at the season start. N-Tech had a qualifying BHP of 774, that's a whopping 16 BHP less that DTK had at the season start for example. Despite buying up to 6 or 7 Quali BHP in the first 6 rounds before the first test, there was still quite a sizable gap to the team with the next lowest qualifying value. And with the first test being a qualifying session, it was obvious that there was not much to gain. But that was OK at the time, as the plan then was that the second test would be a race session, where we (N-Tech) could have a bigger chance at some test rewards. But unfortunately, that's now a qualifying session as well, which again puts N-tech at a disadvantage because of what I explained above.
he has reservations, I would rather he gives his alternative only.
