Probably with some points attributed. The results of that race would decide the order of the grid for the big event. To be voted on Thursday actually, with details such as engine/tire allocation to be discussed if approved. I'm all for it... Strategically it could open up options for some to go for broke on that short race where they otherwise would not get points...Big teams / drivers leading the championship maybe to be more prudent but still need a good result to be in the front of the grid ? Dunno, if you don't try you will never know. Mostly I like the idea of 2 chances to score, all that work and time spent on a F1 w/e can be easily ruined at a first corner... 2 chances.
NASCAR thinking comes to F1.
