What if Formula 1 only awarded points for QUALIFYING?

Follow
Peter Brook

Qualifying has always been an intrinsic part of Formula 1. It’s the one time across the race weekend that we get to see the cars at full performance, and it allows the drivers to really test their metal. Despite the fact that countless historic moments in Formula 1 have occurred in qualifying, it has never afforded points or counted towards the Championship. But what if it did? Indeed, what if it did exclusively? In this universe, Sunday does not exist, and we’re going to see how each season would unfold if points were awarded just for qualifying, and finally answer the question once and for all of who really are the best drivers on one lap. So, the rules: I’m going to apply the same points system that each season used, and I will take into account grid penalties for things like dangerous driving or ignoring yellow flags in qualifying and practice, and I will include disqualifications and exclusions from qualifying for technical infringements, but I will not include grid penalties for things such as engine and gearbox changes or bringing the car out of parc fermé, or for incidents in previous races, as for the sake of this timeline, there is no grid to be penalised for and those races never happened. I will also be discounting the sprint qualifying sessions as seen in 2023. With that out of the way, let’s get started and head back to 1950.
