Hadjar questions Sprints at street circuits

Isack Hadjar has raised concerns about the effectiveness of Formula 1's Sprint format at street circuits, citing his own struggles with mechanical issues during the Singapore Grand Prix. He noted that the limited practice time before competitive sessions leaves little opportunity for teams to address car problems, making the Sprint format less viable in such environments.

Hadjar's views are echoed by other drivers, including Lewis Hamilton, who suggested that the Singapore Sprint was only exciting due to rain, while Max Verstappen and Charles Leclerc also questioned the logic of Sprints where overtaking is scarce. Fernando Alonso added that while the format needs work, he would keep his suggestions to himself for now.
