Qualifying always aims at putting the fastest competitor at the front of the grid going down to the slowest at the back. This can only lead to processions forming. Unless the weather intervenes during qualifying or a driver is penalised for an engine change there is little chance of the faster cars which may stand a chance of overtaking being towards the back of the field.
A change in aerodynamics seems to be the only real answer so that cars can get close to the one in front and then benefit from the slipstream.
