Problem with 2 qualifying sessions is, if some kind of problem puts you at the back on the Saturday, any hope of salvaging the weekend is gone. Now, the top drivers could start last and get into the points in R1, setting up for a good result and reverse grid chance in R2. Not much point in bothering if you claw your way up just to get put last again for the next race!
The second race never used to be so much of a problem with repeat winners and podiums, so I think it’s more the success penalties that need realigning.
