Max Verstappen has doubled down on wanting Formula 1’s Sprint format removed ahead of the configuration returning for the final
Max Verstappen, the Dutchman and F1 driver, has been a critic of the revised Sprint weekend format since its introduction two years ago. The format includes Sprint events, a second qualifying session, and a different schedule. Verstappen believes that the lack of practice time during Sprint weekends leads to issues like disqualifications and setup problems. He argues that a normal race weekend would prevent these problems. Verstappen is not interested in reverse grids or other changes to the format, as he believes the focus should be on competitive cars and consistent rules. He also states that winning a Sprint race does not give him satisfaction and that he finds the Sprint format uninteresting.
