The thing that is great about sprint races, at least with the format introduced this season, is they are a great opportunity for someone to dip their toes in who is curious about becoming a fan of F1. I think the ability to experience both qualifying and a race in one day, and with a shorter race at that, is the ideal way to introduce someone who’s never watched a race before. Sure, people who are already into the sport may not care for sprint weekends, understandable, but as a tactic for bringing in new fans I think it’s worth doing a few times a year.
