Formula 1 (F1) sprint races have been met with criticism this season due to lackluster performances, with few exciting moments and uninteresting qualifying sessions. Some drivers, including Max Verstappen, have spoken out against the format, finding it uninteresting. However, other drivers appreciate the variety that the sprint format brings. In response, the F1 may consider implementing changes for future sprint races, such as grille inversions or other modifications, to address these concerns. The sport's director general, Stefano Domenicali, has expressed a willingness to listen to feedback from fans and drivers, leaving all options open for the future of the sport.
