Nordic should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
I am lucky enough to have been both before and after the changes. From my point of view they have not made a great differance apart from the changes in car design that required the cars to run ultra low downforce pre chicane. this point was demonstrated by the Brun team turning up with a short tail 962 and being faster than the long tail ones. (Imagine a long tail R8 or Zytek!)

This change may have also helped make the cars more drivable over the rest of the track and reduced the danger elsewhere.

I was not in favor at the time, but in hindsight it may have been right to do it.
