Saturday now features a standalone double of the Sprint Shootout to dictate the order for the shortened 100km race that follows, based on the changes for the Formula 1 Sprint weekend made for the 2023 championship. The Sprint Shootout mirrors a normal Formula 1 qualifying session in being split into three stages, but each of those are shorter, with the last eight-minute period possibly leading to one-lap contests to set the top ten.
While teams are allowed to use any of their available tyres in regular qualifying, in the Sprint Shootout new sets of tyres will be mandatory in each of the three parts, with medium compounds in SQ1 and SQ2 followed by a switch to softs in the final stages of the qualifying session, which determines the starting order for Saturday’s short race.
