This is kinda how I would approach it...
9:00am Support quali 1 (30 min)
9:30am Support quali 2 (30 min)
10:00am BTCC practice (45 min)
10:45am Support quali 3 (30 min)
11:15am Support quali 4 (30 min)
11:45am BTCC quali 1 (30 min)
12:15pm Lunch (30 min)
12:45pm Support quali / race 5 (30 min)
13:15pm Support quali / race 6 (30 min)
14:00pm BTCC quali 2 (30 min)
Have the one and only BTCC practice session mid-morning. This would allow people to arrive at the circuit in good time. Then have the support events after, followed by the quali 1 BTCC session before lunch. Then have a break followed by two more support events and then the BTCC quali 2 session after. The reason for the break between the two sessions is to allow for greater chance of track evolution. Maybe the extra rubber down will help, maybe it will hinder? Perhaps rain might fall in the 2 hours or so between the two sessions? You could have it even later like they do now and put it at 3pm or 4pm like it is at some events. Maybe put quali 1 at 1pm and then quali 2 at 3pm, the key is for me to have a fairly large gap so that teams can either make setup changes and the track can evolve.
At the end of the day, what is the point of having two practice sessions? Make one of them a quali session and make it actually count for something.
