Three-time F1 world champion 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen ha🔥s backed the sport’s changes to the sprint format for the 2024 season.

𝔍The Dutchman has been a vocal critic of F1’s sprint format since its introduction in 2021.

For 2024, the sprint shootout (the qualifying session which decides the spr👍int event) will take place on Friday afternoon -✨ after practice.

The sprint race will be the first event on Saturday, while conventio🙈nal qualifying will take place later that day.

Speaking at the launch of the RB20, to select media including 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:ltxcn.top, V𓆉erstappen gave 🥂his view on the changes to the format.

“I think it's a bit more logical, I would say with how the 𝄹forma꧙t is formed,” Verstappen said.

“For me I don't get more excited by winning a sprint o⛦r fighting for these kind of races. But at least a bit more logical I would say.”

Parc ferme regulations are also going to be relaxed, allowi🌠ng teams to make changes to their cars should they be unable to nail the car setup after just 60 minutes of running in FP1.

Again, Verstappen was supportive of the change.

“I think that's a bit better,” he added. “Sometimes you get stuck, you know that your wea💧kened is ruined you know you can't really change anything.

“So for sure it will help a bit.”

There will be six sprint 🐼events in 🃏2024, taking place in China, Miami, Austria, Brazil and Qatar.
