formula 1 is last season on three racing weekends tested sprint races. They are on these weekends qualifications took place already in honeycomb and determined the order of Saturday’s sprint race. The result of the latter, however, determined the order Sunday’s main races. This novelty caused mixed reactions, but at Formula 1 they hoped they could increase the number of sprint races.
Plan for this year he predicted six sprint races, but for this doubling of the number Formula 1 needs consent of eight of the ten teams, but they will not get it. Mercedes, Ferrari in Red Bull they are against it because they don’t get what they want raising the budget ceiling. All the other smaller teams have already given their consent to the proposal, also because Formula 1 has provided a certain amount of money for them. But top teams they are not waiting for that money.
They want for possible damage extra space within the early budget line, although in 2021 except for the disaster Gaslya there were no additional costs at Monza compared to a normal weekend. But here it is necessary to ask partnerships between large and small teams. We doubt that, for example Alpha Tauri voted differently than Red Bull.
It may be that due to the blockade of the top three teams, we will not have any sprint races this year!
Therefore smaller teams accuse the top three teams of trying take advantage of additional sprint races as a reason to increase the budget ceiling. That's for sure surprisingly, as top teams are not ready to take of the same amount, if they put it outside the budget as a substitute. That's why it's a plan Stefano Domenicalito organize six sprint races this year, died quietly, report at car engine and sport. There were teams a few days ago informedto be organized the most this year three sprint races, maybe even less. Where they are supposed to take place is not yet known.
formula 1 will now target a new proposal for the season 2023. Because it will be for next year Sundays needed only six votes out of ten, which will not be difficult. In the original plans, I would Bahrain conducted the first sprint race for which the state would pay a lot of money. Teams will not see this money now.
