student asking question

Does "qualifying" mean "qualifying session" before the final? But I don't understand why he says qualifying "itself" here. Doesn't he mean the tire rack is there during the final and the qualifying session?

That's a good question! I'm not 100% sure what he means by "qualifying itself" but I think he is talking about the qualifiers. The qualifiers are what you were asking about. They are tournaments to see which racers are good enough to compete in the finals. To answer your question about the tire rack, I believe he says that tires are ready for both the qualifier races and the final race. This phrase is a little odd, but he may have accidentally used incorrect grammar.
