yep, scrap the fuel rule
1.it does nothing but cause problems in Q3
2. it gives the rest of the grid (11-22) an unfair advantage over the top 10 who earned those postions and could simply lose it on pit strategy because of the fuel rule. The simplest safety car incident throws the whole system off for a whole host of reasons. Simply put the biggest winners of the Q3 fuel load system are cars 11-17 IMO
3. Adds no drama to the quali session. I would like to see the fastest laps turned in Q3 not Q2 with real duels of speed on the track rather than aggregated plotting and scheming due to the fuel load situation
