Administrator Stan 18,378 Posted July 5, 2021 Administrator Share Posted July 5, 2021 Really not a fan of this F1 sprint thing. I find it a bit pointless. I don't think there was anything particularly wrong with the normal current qualifying format. If it ain't broke....etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber nudge+ 15,325 Posted July 5, 2021 Subscriber Share Posted July 5, 2021 Stupid format. At least they aren't doing reverse grids. They aren't, right??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber RandoEFC+ 7,661 Posted July 5, 2021 Subscriber Share Posted July 5, 2021 This format will flop in my opinion. Just be grateful they've not gone full stupid and trialled it for an entire season instead of just a few races. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Tommy 12,613 Posted July 5, 2021 Author Moderator Share Posted July 5, 2021 What worries me from a safety point of view is that the start is always the most dangerous part, with all the cars so close together, going through corners side by side etc. And now they'll do it twice. Not good for my heart rate, that's for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eco 3,008 Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 Silly format, and odd to be performed at such an iconic setting like Silverstone. They should give this a 'whirl' at Jeddah or some other track, but don't mess with the classics. It'll be interesting how Hamilton does here, seeing as how he has completely dominated this track. I'd be over the moon is Lando was able to pull out the win though. Unlikely, yes, but damn that would be just incredible to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber RandoEFC+ 7,661 Posted July 16, 2021 Subscriber Share Posted July 16, 2021 Took a punt in predictions on Hamilton pulling something out in the sprint qualifying and starting Sunday on pole but looks like Verstappen is in a good position for the race. Given Mercedes setup problems at other races it feels like Friday qualifying isn't going to play into their hands much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given Mercedes setup problems at other races it feels like Friday qualifying isn't going to play into their hands much. I actually can't join the league this year as it says in my profile that I have joined, but each week I have been getting 0 points despite picking a team and doing all the predictions. Frustrating really but oh well. Regardless, if these recent updates for Mercedes don't pan out and bridge the gap, then Hamilton and Mercedes will both be falling from the top spot come year's end.
