The new Daytona 500 Qualifying format: Good or bad?

By @NickS79 | February 17th 2015

On Sunday, we had the new Group Qualifying format at Daytona. Everything looked good, but than it ended in a crash with Clint Bowyer and Reed Sorenson. "It's NASCAR's fault for putting us out in the middle of this crap for nothing," said Bowyer and Denny Hamlin said: "Mayhem. There's no other word to describe it." I think Clint is right. The crew members work really hard on these cars and why should we brake the traditional Qualifying format? Nascar should go back to the old rules and listen to their fans and the drivers. I hope they change the rules and go back to the old format. Another bad point is that the drivers slowed down on the track. Thats dangerous for the other drivers and it's not fair because not the fastest driver would win the pole (I don't want to say that Jeff Gordon didn't deserve the pole. I only want to say that it can go like this.) I hope Nascar go back to the older rules, because it's a tradition that we run single car Laps.
But there are also good points:
There is more action on the track. The drivers fight alot more and it's more about tactic now (when should I go out and drive my lap, what other options do I have?). These questions play an important role now, for the perfect Lap.
