Davide Brivio has outlined one area of the MotoGP weekend format he wants changed
Trackhouse MotoGP team boss Davide Brivio believes changes should be made to MotoGP’s qualifying format to align with Formula 1’s approach to sprint weekends. The current Q1/Q2 15-minute shootout format puts too much emphasis on Friday’s practices, determining the top 10 riders for the Q2 pole shootout. Brivio suggests adopting a system where Friday afternoon’s session qualifies for the sprint race grid, while holding a separate session for the grand prix starting order. This would prevent the entire weekend from being compromised by a poor performance on Friday and make the races more exciting and engaging for fans. Ultimately, having separate qualifying sessions for sprints and grands prix could enhance the competitiveness and allure of MotoGP races.
