Thats not what the rules state. in the rules it says 3 drops can be 1 complete race day.
From the rules each race day consists of 3 rounds, 6 rounds per weekend, 24 rounds for the entire series(I think a round is equivlant to a real F1 race weekend). Points are award for each round on each race day.
At least that is the way I interpret the rules. Hopefully Brad can clearify everything for us new to the UF1 race series.

Throw Outs
There will be the addition of a 3-throwout rule and each throwout is per ROUND. That means you can miss a complete race day and that would be your 3 throwouts, or you can throwout a round in Race 1, a round in Race 4 and a round in Race 5 (or however you choose to do it). Throwouts will be automatically scored, meaning we will drop your 3 worst performances at the end of the series. The throw-out rule does not affect the Constructor’s Championship points; all points for the season will be used.

You are correct in your format; each day has a quick qualifier and then 3 15 minute races.
The 3 drops are 3 complete race days; each day is its own 'race'; all 3 individual races/heats on a day compose of 1 whole race. You can theoretically miss 1 of the 4 events scheduled AND miss another Saturday or Sunday race and still have your 5 complete race days. Confusing but simple at the same time; it’s like saying best 5 out of 8 races.
