Are we expecting a M-H one-stopper for most of the grid?
I wouldn't think so. Last year it was at least a two-stopper for everyone, and today is going to be the hottest day of the weekend

Gah, so boring. The only fight was going to be between Oscar and Lando, and we were robbed. Bring in the rule of deleting the fastest time for the one who causes yellow or red in qualifying now.
How it would make racing better? Gasly finished behind everyone anyway and Piastri and Max would still need to give up on their laps.
Because he ruined Piastri’s and Max’s attempts for going too hard. They had to give up their laps because of Gasly.
But punishing Gasly would change nothing regarding front runners, Max and Piastri would still have their laps abandoned.

With that logic, you wouldn't have to punish a murderer, because the victim would stay dead anyway so what's the point.
Ok, I know I'm hyperboling, and I'm not sure what would be the right way to handle these cases (not the murderer!). But it is certainly unfair when somebody takes consequences by no fault of their own.
Again, I'm not sure about what would be the best way of handling these, but current way is not ideal.

I think point was that with his best Q3 lap deleted, Gasly would still start 10th, so nothing would change for him either.

Think Sainz watched the F 1 movie there’s a scene in it that was pretty similar to a point lol

This race direction is so useless this day. Everytime a little thing happend the whole race is interrupted. Just hold the yellow flag out and push the car in the pit lane.

If a car breaks down and driver lose control and accidentally run over someone killing him, driver won't be punished because it wasn't intentional.

F1 is so unbelievably slow. Race operations are like a stuffy old professor who never leaves his classroom. Completely inflexible.

Next: why is 9 minutes not enough time to change brakes on a racing car these days?

We have seen Ferrari change a front suspension during Qualifying on Alonso's car.

I don't know how Antonelli expected to carry that much speed into that corner?
