Well - Here's my take on Sprint Quali. I'm more optimistic than you'd think. I got more positive the more I thought about it. Must be in a good mood...

"Q2 tyre does mandate further use" - can you reword this? Seems a bit...forced? They aren't mandated to use it further, though they do _get_ to use it further if they wish.

I think that was a typo. It probably was supposed to be "Q2 tyre does not mandate further use".

Very happy to see the “Sprint Qualifying + Grand Prix is essentially just a 400 km race with an overnight red flag period” idea get a shout out. That’s definitely how I think of this whole thing. While this format may succeed in making the overall weekend more entertaining, I feel it will inevitably make the Grands Prix and Championships less entertaining. I still think the best race weekend would be Friday practice sessions, no qualifying, and two full Grands Prix; one Saturday, one Sunday, both with reverse grid starts based on Championship standing.

I think the problems people see with that are (a) watering down the excitement of the Grand Prix. The weekend is supposed to build to the crescendo of the big Sunday Race; (b) lots of people hate the idea of reversed grid for forced penalisation. I'm not massively against it in some form but it does have a more contrived feel that some people aren't used to. I also watch Formula E and they have group qualifying with the highest in the championship going out first. What happens is the early runners have the track at its worst so tend to do really badly in qualifying. So this does mix races up a bit, forcing the best to fight back to the front but lots of people hate how it penalises people for their success.
