P1racenews AI automatic summary:
F1 enters its final Sprint event of the season in Brazil this weekend with opinion still very much divided on the format. Here we take a look at the positives and the negatives before leaving you to cast your vote.
The Formula 1 season finale in São Paulo will feature the Sprint format, but the success of this format is still undecided. Some trials were conducted in 2021, and changes were made for this season, including the addition of three extra Sprints. The Sprint format theoretically brings more excitement, replacing two practice sessions with two qualifying sessions and a 100km race on Saturday, which is more enticing for viewers. A critical change this season was the introduction of a second qualifying session, creating a separate Saturday event. However, the format has faced challenges, with some lackluster Sprints and criticism that it artificially generates excitement. The verdict on whether it should continue next season will depend on the fans’ opinion and whether further changes are made.
