i think we we *told* it was a huge flop... iirc wasn't it the first serious change in the qualifying system for a long time? i know they went from two sessions over 2 days to just the one, but wasn't the one lap shot thing the first big change?
in which case it's not surprising it went down like a poo sandwich... i bet it wouldn't get such a grouchy reception now...
