Genuine question:
I'm a relatively new fan, I started following the sport in 2020. I love to watch and I've been following closely.
To be honest I don't know how I feel about the sprint format. It's exciting sure, but to me it takes some steam out of the actual GP. I think I prefer the standard weekend format.
If you're a long time fan, how do you feel about the sprint format compared to the standard weekend format? Do you think it's good for the sport?
I'm pretty new too, and I don't like it either. It's nothing different from the main race. It's just shorter. If they did something like flip the grid (or just the first 10 cars) that might make it more fun but as it is, I agree that it makes the main GP feel less special.
