I've always thought there would be no need for Sprints for the F1 cars if they just market the F2 support races as a part of the main GP weekend when possible. Say you're looking at the future of F1 or whatever else they want. There's good action, the racing is good, the drivers are almost always exciting to watch, the schedule is tried and tested, there's action all through the weekend. It would bring more eyes and money to the category and possibly subsidize the costs for up-and-coming drivers.Waz wrote: ↑15 Mar 2024, 09:56Dallara always find a way to make the F2 look a little awkward. Considering they don't need to chase performance, they have the freedom to create something more aesthetically pleasing.
And if FIA treated F2 like FIM treats Moto2, as a proper world championship and a destination series, it would become much more popular. F2 lacks the stars and not allowing the Champion to defend their title was quite a mistake.
At least let them defend it until beaten or moved on to F1. Then we'd have fewer drivers sitting on the sidelines waiting for an F1 seat for 2 or 3 years.
It's not easy following a series with new drivers constantly.
Think they are messing with the F1 sprint format again this year? Dont know even what it is anymore.CaribouBread wrote: ↑18 Mar 2024, 07:56I've always thought there would be no need for Sprints for the F1 cars if they just market the F2 support races as a part of the main GP weekend when possible.

It would be better for F2 and it would satisfy Liberty's "racing action every day" philosophy.
