To make it more interesting for all, why not introduce points for qualifying - same as for the actual race.

In my opinion if there were too many points for qualifying, it would dilute the races.

But I think that F1 could easily follow the example of other series, and give a single point each for pole and fastest race lap.

No, I like the race being all important and qualifying simply being to setup the positions for the race.

*IF* there was, I'd say no more than simply one point for pole. More of a symbolic thing. There's already enough incentive in racing to get pole, and that's simply to stay out of first turn carnage. The race is on Sunday and that's how it should stay.

If drivers earned 1 point for qualifying on pole, Seb would've earned an extra 15 points in 2011! That's one extra third place!

2011 was an anomaly. Since you have some spare time, do the calculations for 2012. Hurry! I'm waiting!

Extra points earned for qualifying in 2012 would be:

Lewis Hamilton = 3
Sebastian Vettel = 3
Fernando Alonso = 2
Jenson Button = 1
Nico Rosberg = 1
Pastor Maldonado = 1
Mark Webber = 1

thank you. So yeah, 2011 was an anomaly and this year would reward the more consistently fast qualifiers.

I'd like a point given for pole, give an extra incentive for drivers to give it 110% instead of settling for second or third... that extra point could be all important come the end of the season!

And fastest lap, just to see everyone outside the top ten pit on the 3nd from last lap for fresh tires and a mad last couple laps

Sauber have had a couple of fastest laps this season.

I think a single point would be pretty good, and yes I was just about to say I'd there was a point for fastest lap, Perez would have about 10 more points
