F1 2016: The short lived new Qualifying format

Confused? How does it work? What do people think of it? This video has got you covered!

(2021 UPDATE: So apprently youtube's algorithim blew this up out of nowhere. For those who don't get it, THIS IS A TROLL/ENTERTAINMENT EDIT, NOT AN INFORMATIVE EXPLANATORY VIDEO. As if the smiley emoticon and PENISton Oils logo isn't enough of an indicator)

Yeah I mean Peniston Oils are good, but what about Larsen biscuits?

"mom can we have reverse grid?"
"No we have reverse grid at home"
The reverse grid at home:

Toto wolff's comment on the qualifying session killed XD

[brskywalker]

When RedBull was slower than Toro Rosso 😅

[chrisbrowning]

Toto's tiny bit of a smile cracking through after his comment had me rolling on the floor laughing 👍

[TheConfidentNoob]

Holy shit, I didn't even know that this qualifying method was a thing and I'm so glad that they changed it back to how we know it today. This must've been so confusing for the teams and the drivers, let alone the fans as they didn't know why there were hardly any cars on track

3:11 : Best Brundle's "Wat"

[JJLozzer]

Love it from Toto; “We shouldn’t say anything bad on TV, but it was rubbish.” 😂

[DeadEye]

Classic case of "If it ain't broke, Don't fix it"

[lukaszlamura]

3:12 Brundle's "What?!" must be the best moment of that qualifying

[dylancotton]

it was so bad they thought "lets do a second time just to make sure its really really bad"

[SamuelSantos_]

The youtube algorithm be recommending this to us nearly 5 years later

I'm looking back at this in 2019 and I knew this was the worst fricking qualifying method ever

[callummcinerney]

the one bloody qualifying i go to in real life

[marktucker]

@1:14 here you can see the excel page with their run plan and strategy/engine modes.

[Duval-In-The-Wall]

I really liked the idea of the elimination graphic going up to 2nd lol

[travishopkins]

18 year old verstappen qualifying p5 in a toro rosso... what a guy

[brabhamF]

Imagine paying like 500 $ for an F1 weekend and coming in on Saturday to have the drivers on the weighing scales with 3, 5 minutes left on the clock.

[DaveTheRave]

One of those ideas that looked great on paper but just didn’t work

[sagradasinfamilia]

I love the fact that you even took the time to change the description for the 2021 viewers <3 <3 <3
