F1 this week announced that the schedule for sprint weekends will be changing again for this season.
Sprint qualifying will be on Friday afternoons/evening, with the sprint "race" on Saturday mornings. The full race qualifying will be on Saturday afternoons/evenings, with the race alone on Sundays.
I'm not sure if these changes are for the best. Saturday afternoons and Friday evenings were far better timeslots, with Saturday morning a particulary poor timelsot.
One benificary of this change will presumably be the Channel 4 highlights, which barely covered the traditional qualifying last season when it was on Fridays.
