EuroBrun, Coloni, AGS & Life - you kind of wonder why they bothered at all, but those kind of small teams don't exist in F1 anymore and that's kind of sad.

19 teams that year, I would love to see that again. Today F1 can't even fill a full grid of 26 cars, what a joke.

Because F1 was the biggest advertising in the world back in the day. You could get much attention for a product, so most sponsors were quite generous. Also running cost were not as high as today. And you had the chance to be in the front if your engineers found some magical trick to make your car faster. Like Lotus did with the ground effect. The regulations were much more open.

Thanks Subinoxe. Alliot insight into being at the back of the grid is much appreciated, especially after listening to James Hunt rail against his driving during that 1990 season.

As a kid, I always thought Eurosport went that extra bit further when presenting Formula 1 and while I wasn't watching F1 at the time, this kinda proves me right. It would be great to have an era of pre-qualifying again but the costs would have to come down considerably for that to happen and even then, the payments are skewed towards the big teams so as to make it virtually impossible for any of them to survive. Just look at Force India.

what is your opinion now? F1 has changed a considerable amount in the last 5/6 years

Coloni were turning up for years with almost no chance of pre qualifying. Amazing tenacity or pure madness?

To be fair, this was the season they suddenly got backing from Subaru, so they probably thought things were looking up And then they got the engine, and things went straight back down again.

We've seen a few examples of chaotic races allowing back markers to do well in the end, but the inability to even be on the starting grid was ruthless. But again F1 should enforce a certain minimum standard, and back then the differences between the top and bottom teams was huge and not something that should be in the top series of motorsports.

@Equinoxef1 4 жыл бұрын

Prost was going to be fired 1 GP before the end of 1991 by Ferrari for saying that his F1 had a truck direction. He took a sabbatical year in 1992. He returned in 1993 with Williams and he suceeded to win the championship . He took his retirement at the end of this same year.

why ligier had to be in pre-qualifying

@Equinoxef1 6 жыл бұрын

Because they didn't score any point since the start of the season, and also, there was too much cars to form the grid.

@@tamasklozer3271 Normally I scoff at such a suggestion because having six cars running around at the back (as those teams were by the end) is hardly going to make things exciting. That said if there were, say, 28 drivers it would mean that teams HAD to set a time in qualifying or not race, meaning if say Hammy or Max binned it or had technical difficulties in Q1, they would be out of the race weekend entirely.
