If things go according to plan, there will be two F1 qualifying sessions in Azerbaijan.
Stevenson said the teams support the move because drivers will be able to"push harder and take more risks" in the sprint, because the results will no longer determine the grid order for Sunday's all-important grand prix.Some, however, question the wisdom of making Baku the first sprint race of 2023.
"The reality is it's absolutely ludicrous to be doing the first sprint race of the year at a street race like Azerbaijan," said Red Bull boss Christian Horner. "But I think from a spectacle point of view, from a fan point of view, it's probably going to be one of the most exciting sprint races of the year.
"Irrespective of whether the rules change or not, a sprint race weekend at that tight, twisty track where you go through the castle section is going to cause a little bit of mayhem. There’s going to be difficulties.""From a cost gap perspective, all you can do is trash your car and it costs a lot of money around there. One race is enough in Baku, so to have two - there could well be some action there," he added.
However, Williams Team Principal James Vowles said talks remain ongoing over whether the sprint format will change for Baku.
