Are wear points counted in a qualifying lap, including downshifts and overshoots?
The qualifying rules say wear points are not taken into account except for overshoots.

No. In the stopwatch qualifying lap, wear points are not counted, so downshifting and braking cost nothing. The only penalty is an overshoot, which adds one throw per space overshot. A car that makes no stop in a two- or three-stop corner starts from the back of the field.
