This is the case regardless of whether it's a ratings standard, a pre-quali exercise, or a licensing system. So my thinking is that nobody needs to be turned away from a series if they can be split into another server. Is this wrong?Not wrong, and a valid point. We should try our experiment (should it ever happen) in a way that allows "unqualified" drivers (however that is defined) to compete on an alternate server.
