[BTCC] 2024 BTCC Rds. 7/8/9 - Snetterton 25/26 May

Does anyone know if there are any changes to the qualifying format for this round? I try and look at the bright side of things, but I cannot see the current format really working at this track with it being so long.

I watched the TCR qualifying that had more cars on track than the BTCC will have in the final qualifying session and the track looked barron in TCR's. If the front wheel drive cars are still going to do tyre swaps, are we in for 1 or 2 flying laps per session when you take out the time for the 2 outlaps and tyre crossing?

I'm guessing the BMW's will do their normal and cruise around for 2 or 3 laps before setting 1 or 2 fast laps. Then they will save the tyres if there is any time left.

It just feels like it's going to be 75% faffing per session and 25% action on a very empty race track. That's IF there is no red flags during each session.

Hopefully, I'm proved very wrong and it'll be a very exciting Saturday fingers crossed.

This is something that I mentioned a couple of times in one of the threads, and would apply, possibly/probably, at Croft, Oulton, Thruxton and Brands GP circuit.
