As the exhilarating finale of the 2023 F1 season approaches, the São Paulo Grand Prix awaits, bringing with it a longed-for sensation. Yes, you guessed it: Friday qualifying is back!
In just a matter of hours, the grid will reverberate with the roars of 20 fearless drivers, all vying for the coveted pole position in Sunday’s remarkable Grand Prix. Under the F1 Sprint format, teams will have only one precious hour of practice before the crucial qualifying session, making every minute on the track incredibly valuable.
Leading up to this thrilling event, the F1 Sprint format has been a topic of considerable intrigue during Thursday’s press conferences. While opinions on the F1 Sprint races themselves remain divided among the drivers, there seems to be a growing preference for the single practice session integrated into race weekends.
However, not all drivers share the same perspective. One vocal advocate for the traditional three practice sessions is none other than the talented rookie, Logan Sargeant, hailing from Williams. Expressing his thoughts on the matter, Sargeant commented, “As a rookie, it’s nice to have the three practice sessions. But beyond that, I feel that Saturday is somewhat separate from the rest of the weekend, offering limited value if you’re outside the top eight. Hence, I prefer a normal weekend.”
The eagerly-awaited single practice session is scheduled to kick off at 10:25 a.m. Eastern tomorrow, setting the stage for the qualifying showdown looming at 1:55 p.m. Eastern. Throughout the day, we will diligently track every twist and turn, ensuring you remain updated on all the latest developments.
