Ok, I think I found something. Apologies if it's already been stated or is already known.
In my current club series, a Multi-class Diablo GTO & Super Trofeo, despite the qualifying times, the grid is ordered by class, not by qualifying times.
For instance, ST has the top 5-6 drivers, with the GTO drivers 2-3 secs slower in qualifying. At the start of the race, the GTO drivers are positioned in front, in order of class time, and the STs are behind them gridded based on their time.
This happened in 2 consecutive races @ Barcelona National and Monza GP. Shouldn't qualifying be based on time only and ignore classes? Am I missing something where the grid is set based on class then time?
Thanks.
