could be 8-10 sprints and some Grand Prix will be 7 to 8 laps shorter

there is concern as they shift to 60% ICE or whatever the final number is that additional pits and full tanks (which makes the cars slower) will hurt the racing, so they are talking about having shorter Grand Prixs so the cars have enough gas to make it without an additional refueling and full tanks slowing the race.

Back to the board

- These street circuits no fan asked for are just F1 catering to pure corporate profit. They can use big city infrastructure, charge abhorrent prices only the wealthiest in those cities can afford, get massive fees and revenue, and not have to maintain a track year round.* - By gbmcq September 15, 2026 at 06:22:29 PM

  - That actually could make sense, Monaco is all about qualifying. With a sprint you get two qualifying sessions * - By carlson September 15, 2026 at 06:05:09 PM
