Qualifying - what's it all about?
Qualifying determines the starting grid for the race, with the fastest driver lining-up in first place, ahead of the pack. The session lasts one hour and sees drivers divided into groups, decided by a lottery conducted in advance (see the results of this below). In Qualifying, each driver has six minutes to set their best time, with the top-five drivers proceeding to the Super Pole shoot-out.
