With Super Aguri now out of the F1 2008 season, there have been changes to the qualifying format from the Turkish GP. Ten cars will still race for pole position in the final 10-minute phase but in Q1 and Q2, there will only be five eliminations to enable 10 cars to line up for Q3.

The minor change will not affect qualifying much, but it does mean that there will a little less excitement in the first two qualifying sessions.
