Formula 1: FIA plans to have six sprint race from 2023 onwards and receives support from Ferrari: FIA plans to have six sprint races in place of three from the 2023 season onwards, and in what comes as a major source of relief for them, Ferrari has supported this plan. The Formula 1 Commission will meet in London today to examine, among different points, whether to expand the number of sprint races one year from now to six.

Ferrari team principal Mattia Binotto is an enthusiast for the format and expects to help it at the present gathering in London, which begins at 11 AM local time. “It is in the agenda, so we have the intention to raise the numbers to six events with the sprint race,” said Binotto.

“As Ferrari, we are in favor. I have to say because we believe that overall it will give in the future good opportunities and better opportunities for the show and for the revenues. So I think it’s right to support,” Binotto further confirmed.
F1 motorsport chief Ross Brawn has said he desires to win the backing of a basic majority at the commission the increment to six sprint races, which implies getting 25 out of 30 votes. As 20 of those votes are held by FIA and FOM, and the excess 10 are isolated similarly among the groups, somewhere around five of the groups should uphold the proposition for it to go on.

Sprint races bring possibly greater expenses for teams because of the expanded gamble of harm contrasted with a practice session. However, Binotto is happy with the special cases which are allowed for such harm under the financial plan cap.
“In terms of costs, I think it has been discussed. We know in terms of a budget cap, allowances, revenues, what may be worthwhile,” Brawn said.
Ross Brawn has also spoken along similar lines and has affirmed the budget cap allowance will be scaled in accordance with the number of sprint races. “Each sprint has an allowance. At the moment it’s three times the allowance. Next year it will be six times the allowance,” he said.
