I don't really have an issue with that. They were fastest in qualifying. The fact that they have to do a race to take up whatever position they will for the Grand Prix is not reflective of the fact they got pole. Of course, the history books of these poles won't tell you that a driver who got pole such as Magnussen didn't get to start a Grand Prix from the front, but pole in Friday qualifying is still a good representation of a pole position (i.e. the winner of competition over one lap).
