It's not inactive, at least now driver mistaken was removed we could notice that its effect is very small if you compare with fuel weight.
I've run a test with two drivers that were supposed to do same times (L Thomas against R Hamilton in a friend's account). With a 10kg difference there was only 1 race of 13 that heavier driver (Thomas) came ahead Hamilton in qualifying.
When he came ahead, gap was 0.137s (

When he was behind, gap was usually close:
5 races Thomas came behind only 0.010s or less;
2 races Thomas came behind between 0.020~0.011s;
4 races Thomas came behind between 0.125~0.021s;
1 race Thomas came behind more than that (max gap was 0.279)

After 13th race, I trained weight and qualifying times started to be exactly the same until the end of that season.
