    I believe the Sprint race is 2 hours after the Sprint Shootout

    It's a sprint qualifying for the actual sprint race that follows the sprint qualifying in 2 hours. This Sprint race is also for points. 1st place is 8 points, 2nd place is 6 points and so on and so forth.

    F1 decided this would appease and raise ratings to the fans at the venue and those watching on TV.

    I see. I thought the real qualifying for Sunday also determined the grid positions for the sprint race. Like in MotoGP. Thanks for the explanation.

    Kid Cibie on the front row. He likes it here and that bodes well for his future. He’s going to start giving Lando more to worry about.
