Quali VS Race

wouldnt it be better if small points were handed out in qualyfying for say the top 3?

No because it gives the driver with the fastest car an even bigger advantage over a WDC rival in a lesser car, points have always been won in the race and it should stay that way.

There's a phrase in golf which springs to mind in this debate "Driving's for show, putting's for dough", ditto qualifying and the race in F1.

It's a lot more difficult to putt from half-way down the fairway though.
