Whenever any Autosport writer suggests introducing reverse grids in Formula 1 is the most effective way to deliver what many fans are clamouring for, much of the response is very negative.
It's frustrating, because it's comfortably the most effective and least contrived way to deliver that. Provided, of course, you want to change what has been a successful formula since qualifying was adopted for the 1933 Monaco Grand Prix and rapidly became the standard.
Whether or not you want to make such a dramatic change - and personally, I reckon the past eight decades of grand prix racing has been pretty thrilling - if you are going to take the current complaints seriously, reverse grids have to be considered.
