Can’t help feel this will either be just a bit naff, or giving an additional advantage to an already strong car/driver combo.
I really don’t understand the push for sprint races… They bring nothing to the table, and yet Dominicalli sell out for them for a quick buck. Everything F1 does in the last 5 years has been extremely short -sighted.
That’s all Liberty Media. They own the Atlanta Braves baseball team and I’m just surprised they haven’t had some sort of ‘synergy’ event like pitchers pelting the cars or giving Ozuna (large muscular player) a few minutes alone with a baseball bat and the car on pole before a race.
They are maxed out on the number of GPs at this point, so the only way they can squeeze in more product is to eliminate the “filler” like practices and replace them with more racing. More racing = more TV viewers, more ticket sales and attendance on Fridays and Saturdays.
But I agree with you, sprints bring nothing new to the table, it’s just quantity over quality.
