I don't like the sprints anyway - they're playing to the short attention span "boring, entertain me now!" types, frankly.
But if we must have them, the current system is better - allowing different parc ferme periods makes sense as the two races are different formats with different set up requirements.
If you are more fortunate than others, build a larger table not a taller fence.
But if they are to have them I wonder if they could get away with a little more FP, Say like 3 x 30 minutes 2 before the sprint quali 1 post the sprint before main quali. Still make it a tight .
But I suspect after this weekend they are happy with it it probably created the unpredictability the FIA wanted in teams not nailing their setup.
