Because it's harder to beat an 11.00 index by 1.00 seconds than it is to beat a 15.00 index by one second. So unless we start measuring by how big a % you can beat an index by, yadda, yadda, yadda, we simply use the rule we've already used.

Now in the case you showed, that 1.335 under is pretty impressive. But look down the list. 1.085 under an 11.85 index is tougher than 1.100 under a 13.75 index.

So how are you going to decide? Sorry, but the answer is simple: Do it how they've always done it. Quicker car gets the advantage. First red-light loses.

If you'd be willing to re-seed the qualifiers based on percentage run under the index, then perhaps a "worst red-light" rule makes sense. And they should block the red/green from the other driver's sight.

I'm sorry you don't lie my answer, but you don't need to mock me and make it personal. It's not.
