If I am not mistaken, that rule about the Q2 tire was in effect this past 2015 season. It was to cure the issue of people not totally pushing it in Q3 for a grid position and/or sitting in the garage to save tires for the race.
Perhaps they should decide grid order based on a drinking competition the night before. The hangovers would produce better racing as drivers would make mistakes when the in-helmet vomit distorted their vision.
(Example number 148 of why I have to remain at a private company)

Damn... You saw through my clever plan... this would give Ferrari and Kimi both the title.
Totally off topic, but lets do a very light survey here on which team you would like to party/drink with and why.
For me it would be Ferrari. Both Kimi and Vettel seem cool and you know the food and drink would be top quality from the Italian heritage at Ferrari. But in second place would be Mercedes... I would try to promote a dust-up between a drunk Lewis and a tea infused raspberry vodka sipping Rosberg.

Mercedes? Well, the Germans do have the reputation of being more reserved so I a not sure they would be in second place.
In the coming year I think I would go with HAAS. Why HAAS? Because I think any success in the first year will be met with raucous celebrations.

I would put Ferrari at the top because, being an Italian team, I think they would be more "expressive" when they drink.
Mercedes? Well, the Germans do have the reputation of being more reserved so I a not sure they would be in second place.

I wonder if anybody else has any insights on the best team to party with...
