Formula One to hold three sprint races in 2022
The Hindu
The fastest driver in qualifying will be awarded 'pole position' for the sake of the record books, even if they end up lower down in the sprint race.
Formula One approved a plan to hold three sprint races instead of six in 2022 at an F1 Commission meeting on February 14, the FIA said in a statement.
The move will see the sprint format used at races in Imola's Emilia Romagna Grand Prix and the Austrian and Brazilian Grands Prix, the FIA said in a statement.
The sport was set to roll the format out across six events this season after having trialled it at three grands prix last year.
