There are currently no plans to scrap F1 practice, despite Domenicali's comments over the weekend. What's really behind his remarks ⬇️
During a visit to the opening round of the MotoGP season in Portugal, Domenicali was interviewed by Portuguese channelBut it was one remark that caused a stir as it suggested that he was looking at a bold shake-up of the F1 weekend timetable.
However, the possibility of F1 getting rid of practice sessions completely is something that would be unpopular with competitors and fans. For fans too, solid attendances at events on Fridays show that there is an interest in seeing cars running extensively throughout the day even when there is no reward up for grabs.
One of the successes of the sprint weekend format is that the reduction in practice running, with just a single session before qualifying, has added a greater intensity to the event. "In a normal weekend, the one consisting of free practice one and two on Friday, each session should be awarding either points, or single qualifying laps, or a qualification for a different and shorter Saturday race, instead of the third free [practice], perhaps with the mechanism of the reverse grid," he told the Italian newspaper.
