Now that we have tried the new qualify format once, we need to discuss it and figure out what to do in the future, in the form og rules, guidelines or changing the format.
For me it is one thing that is important for such a qualify format to work; everybody must understand that it is in your (and everybody else) interest that you do not have a faster car behind you on your outlap. In a perfect qualify we would automatically sort out the order on the out lap. Eg. if I see David in my mirrors I would want him to pass me, and if I see Vale ahead of me I would want to pass him. For this to work though, either name tags must work or one must recognise all skins to identify who is around you.
Greatly simplified I would think that at Spa most gambled on going out immediatly and try to get two runs. An alternative would be to wait for the perfect gap and only go for one run.
